Transcript

00:00:00.000 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:00:15.140 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:00:21.740 They say it couldn't be done.
00:00:25.140 That I couldn't come up with 20 minutes of good news.
00:00:31.300 Certainly couldn't come up with an hour of good news.
00:00:34.580 They said it couldn't be done.
00:00:37.280 It's been done.
00:00:38.940 My goal was to set out today to bring you an hour of things that don't suck.
00:00:44.960 Which I thought, if we could just find some neutral things.
00:00:47.940 You know what I mean?
00:00:48.640 You just find things like, hey, you know the lady that was in the car crash and had three of her limbs removed last night?
00:00:56.580 At least that ain't you.
00:00:58.280 You know that kind of story?
00:01:00.360 I think I've actually found a bunch of really good news.
00:01:04.060 And I'm going to share it with you in 60 seconds.
00:01:09.920 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:12.300 So Grace lives here in Texas.
00:01:13.660 And for decades she's dealt with extreme pain in her lower back and legs.
00:01:17.460 And when you live like that for a while, it gets to the point where you just are like, okay, I'm just going to live with it.
00:01:23.480 Thankfully, Grace isn't that type.
00:01:25.260 Over the years she's tried a ton of different things to make the pain go away, but nothing worked.
00:01:30.000 Then came the day when Grace was listening to a very incredibly handsome, talented, smart, almost a prophet of his day.
00:01:43.360 If he wasn't so damn good looking, that's what he'd be known for.
00:01:46.640 Anyway, she was listening to me on the radio and she said, you know, I've tried everything, but she decided to give it a try because this guy she listens to is just infectious with his smile, with his grace.
00:02:01.840 His humility is one of the other things I'm sure she loves.
00:02:05.060 Anyway, she thought, what do I have to lose?
00:02:06.640 So she took it for two straight weeks.
00:02:10.860 Her co-workers began coming up to her and telling her, what's different about you?
00:02:15.220 Turns out, when she wasn't in pain, it was pretty noticeable.
00:02:20.120 She not only noticed it, but so did everybody else.
00:02:23.100 Grace got her life back.
00:02:24.760 Relief Factor is not a drug developed by doctors, and 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more.
00:02:30.140 So this handsome and humble man is just saying, what do you have to lose?
00:02:35.160 Give it a shot.
00:02:35.980 Relief Factor dot com or call 800-583-84, 800-583-84.
00:02:40.900 It's Relief Factor dot com.
00:02:45.000 All right, Pat.
00:02:48.880 Now, remember, the standard is very low.
00:02:56.040 Very low.
00:02:56.540 You have a very low bar.
00:02:59.320 Yes.
00:02:59.560 So would I say this was an hour, a power hour of good news, you know, back in 2000?
00:03:05.400 No.
00:03:06.220 2010?
00:03:07.280 No.
00:03:08.360 2016?
00:03:09.540 Absolutely not.
00:03:10.980 Today?
00:03:12.220 This is a power hour of great news, America.
00:03:15.600 So let's go to the first one.
00:03:17.340 When I say Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, what do you think?
00:03:22.700 Liberal court.
00:03:24.980 Progressives.
00:03:26.340 Yeah.
00:03:26.760 No justice.
00:03:27.820 Really anything but good news, right?
00:03:29.420 Yes.
00:03:29.960 Anything but good news.
00:03:31.180 All right.
00:03:32.340 Plans for the 3D printed self-assembled ghost guns can now be posted online without U.S.
00:03:40.720 State Department approval.
00:03:42.960 This was decided by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco.
00:03:48.300 They reinstated the Trump administration's order that permitted removal of the guns from the State Department's munitions list.
00:03:56.020 Now, I don't know about you, but I don't like the fact that anybody can just make a gun online, but you can't put technology back into a bottle.
00:04:09.800 You know, by banning that, you're not doing anything.
00:04:16.060 You know, the source, the number one source for guns that have been confiscated in California in the last, what was it, three years were 3D printed ghost guns.
00:04:29.880 Did you know that?
00:04:32.940 I didn't.
00:04:34.200 Yeah.
00:04:34.340 So who do you think is printing those?
00:04:38.600 Good guys or bad guys?
00:04:41.680 This was happening while the ban was in place.
00:04:46.440 Jeez.
00:04:47.020 So it does absolutely nothing.
00:04:50.780 It does nothing.
00:04:51.840 And I can't believe that the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals actually made that.
00:04:58.900 Now, this is good news.
00:04:59.760 And really, that's the good news part of the story, though, right?
00:05:03.800 It's the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
00:05:05.280 It's the work that Donald Trump did replacing the justices who left that court with justices who will make good decisions.
00:05:13.080 Right.
00:05:13.680 And I'm not saying this is a clean cut, good decision.
00:05:16.380 I mean, ghost guns are bad.
00:05:18.800 You know what I mean?
00:05:19.880 It makes all of our laws, all of the everything, you know, where you have to be a responsible citizen bad.
00:05:27.020 However, however, this is a correct reading of shall not be infringed.
00:05:34.160 No question.
00:05:35.280 So I think that's really good news.
00:05:37.600 Now, next piece.
00:05:39.620 Supreme Court made a decision to take up a New York gun case.
00:05:44.400 This could be really bad news if they go the other way.
00:05:52.540 However, the case is giving momentum now to the idea that you can carry your gun if you have a gun permit in one state.
00:06:07.260 You can carry it across state lines to the other state.
00:06:11.760 The court.
00:06:13.400 This is the first gun case since, I think, the Heller case.
00:06:17.320 And it's been 12 years.
00:06:19.360 They said it's going to the the challenge is a New York law that allows residents to carry a concealed handgun only after proving a special need.
00:06:29.180 This is what happens in New York.
00:06:32.200 Most people don't have any idea.
00:06:35.000 Do you remember when we we did a what was it?
00:06:37.440 An 18 month journey to get a gun permit?
00:06:45.300 Oh, yeah.
00:06:45.900 You remember that?
00:06:46.820 It's in one of our books.
00:06:48.140 I can't remember.
00:06:48.720 Stu would remember which book, which book.
00:06:50.340 But Kevin, who used to work for me in New York, he we were writing a book.
00:06:56.320 We said the the paperwork, the way to get a gun in New York is impossible.
00:07:01.720 And I think all he could get was a shotgun for his apartment.
00:07:06.260 This wasn't a handgun.
00:07:07.600 He had it took him a year and a half to be able to buy a gun a year and a half.
00:07:14.500 I was turned down for a gun permit in New York, even though others have guns in New York.
00:07:21.480 I couldn't get one.
00:07:22.860 I don't know why they said I didn't have special need.
00:07:25.220 Are you out of your mind?
00:07:26.300 I mean, I had all kinds of protection on me all the time because of the threats on my life.
00:07:33.460 Anyway, they say that this is basically making it so nobody can get a gun in New York except the the bad guys.
00:07:44.400 Second Second Amendment rights supporters say that this is going to open things up.
00:07:50.860 If it goes the right way, this will open things up.
00:07:54.640 So the good news here, I think, on guns is it is it seems to be going the other way.
00:08:01.040 State after state is strengthening their gun laws.
00:08:06.280 They are strengthened.
00:08:07.280 And when I say that they're strengthening their gun freedom laws and they are all preparing for an absolute assault on on guns, which I think is fantastic news.
00:08:17.580 And over the last, what, 12 years or so, John Roberts has squashed every attempt to hear a gun case in the Supreme Court, but he didn't this time.
00:08:29.100 So people think that maybe he's being more heavily influenced by the new so-called conservatives that are on the court again.
00:08:38.200 Good win for Donald Trump.
00:08:39.960 Yep.
00:08:40.400 A win for America.
00:08:42.000 Yep.
00:08:43.340 Thank you, Donald Trump, for this.
00:08:45.400 OK, next one.
00:08:47.660 White farmers.
00:08:48.580 You know, I live part time in a farming community up north, and it is it's a town of 500 people.
00:08:55.800 They're all farmers or most of them are farmers.
00:08:58.680 And it's just a different way of life, a totally different way of life.
00:09:02.600 It's honestly from somebody who lives in the city.
00:09:06.200 It's almost as close as I could ever get to being Amish.
00:09:11.320 And there are times I'm like this.
00:09:13.560 I'm I'm how far away from a Walmart.
00:09:15.460 Am I for the love of Pete?
00:09:17.160 What am I Amish?
00:09:18.860 But it is a tight knit community and really kind.
00:09:23.960 It's a kind group of people.
00:09:26.420 The first bad word I have ever.
00:09:29.500 Do you know?
00:09:30.440 Do you know Rich and Sue?
00:09:32.320 Pat, have you met them yet up at the ranch?
00:09:34.840 Yes.
00:09:35.840 OK.
00:09:36.360 It's been a while.
00:09:36.940 Really?
00:09:37.580 Yeah.
00:09:38.120 Really good.
00:09:39.720 Rock solid people, you know, and I never hear them say a bad word about anybody.
00:09:47.060 You know, it's a little like your wife, you know.
00:09:49.420 Oh, bless her heart.
00:09:50.920 Look how cute she is.
00:09:51.800 She's so nice.
00:09:53.280 Never says a bad word about anybody, at least in public that I know of.
00:09:59.660 Really, really sweet and kind.
00:10:01.980 The first thing I have heard from that was not an unkind word, but a strong statement was.
00:10:11.480 This will cause problems and pit farmers against farmers.
00:10:18.820 This is racist and can't stand.
00:10:21.760 And what he was talking about was the government loan forgiveness for farmers.
00:10:26.640 I don't know if you followed this, but you can get loan forgiveness if you're a rancher or a farmer that is black, American Indian, Hispanic, Alaskan native, Asian American or Pacific Islander.
00:10:41.820 If you're white, don't apply.
00:10:45.580 That is not America.
00:10:47.720 That can't happen.
00:10:49.880 Well, a group of Midwestern farmers have gotten together and they are suing the federal government because white farmers are not eligible.
00:10:58.580 Uh, and they're saying my constitutional rights are being violated, which they are.
00:11:03.920 Uh, we plaintiffs are, uh, or sir, uh, sorry, uh, plaintiffs eligible for loan forgiveness benefit.
00:11:10.400 Uh, they would have the opportunity to make additional investments in their property, expand their farms, purchase equipment and supplies, and otherwise support their families and local communities.
00:11:19.160 Says the lawsuit because plaintiffs are ineligible to even apply for the program solely due to their race.
00:11:26.260 They have been done, denied the equal protection of the law and therefore suffered harm.
00:11:30.680 The U S listen to this.
00:11:32.140 This is a response from the Biden administration.
00:11:34.560 The U S department of agriculture issued a statement saying it was reviewing the lawsuit with the U S department of justice.
00:11:40.880 Oh, I feel better now.
00:11:41.960 Uh, but that the USDA plans to continue to offer loan forgiveness to socially disadvantaged farmers.
00:11:49.480 So what they're saying is everyone who's a minority is socially disadvantaged.
00:11:55.520 Everybody who's white and a farmer is not.
00:11:58.800 I have news for you.
00:11:59.960 Every farmer is socially disadvantaged in today's world.
00:12:05.080 Every farmer is now.
00:12:07.640 Here's the thing.
00:12:08.480 And I, I, I think this is good news in a world where we were having a conversation of common sense and the courts could do a great deal of, uh, good here.
00:12:20.500 They're saying that for a long time, um, you know, black farmers and farmers, minority farmers were not getting loans for their farms.
00:12:30.820 Uh, and white people were getting on the loans.
00:12:33.500 I don't know if that's true, but let's just say it was.
00:12:36.140 If that was true, that's a separate case.
00:12:40.720 That is something that we would all unite on and say, let's solve that.
00:12:45.560 That's wrong.
00:12:47.720 The story is really, uh, uh, really well written.
00:12:52.960 Uh, uh, less than 2% of the direct loans from the Trump administration went to black farmers.
00:13:00.420 Okay.
00:13:00.980 Well, what is the percentage of black farmers?
00:13:04.560 I mean, is it 2% of all farmers?
00:13:08.100 Is it 5%?
00:13:09.180 Is it 90%?
00:13:10.320 What is it?
00:13:11.880 I mean, that would help if we knew what the percentage of black farmers is.
00:13:19.120 Um, all right.
00:13:20.020 So they're saying that, um, uh, Donald Trump and for a long time, this has been happening, yada, yada, yada.
00:13:27.240 Well, fine.
00:13:28.060 Then let's get rid of that.
00:13:30.260 Let's correct that.
00:13:31.620 But you can't correct things by becoming racist yourself.
00:13:36.080 You're saying that this is racist.
00:13:38.400 They wouldn't give any of these, uh, black farmers just based on their race, any kind of loan.
00:13:44.140 Well, let's fix that by making sure that people who are white based on their race can't get a loan.
00:13:51.060 It makes no sense whatsoever.
00:13:53.700 And what they will say is we have limited resources.
00:13:57.800 Since when?
00:14:00.840 Since when?
00:14:02.240 So I think this is another sign.
00:14:05.320 And I've got a couple of stories here where people are really pushing back.
00:14:08.280 Next, I'm going to go to the police and then we'll go to the schools.
00:14:11.380 But this is a good sign.
00:14:13.800 People are not taking it.
00:14:15.820 And they're not rising up in anger with guns.
00:14:18.540 We're not going and looting a Walmart or a Target store.
00:14:22.580 What we're doing is we're going to the court system and saying, this is wrong.
00:14:27.660 This is racism.
00:14:28.880 And this has to stop.
00:14:32.240 Good news.
00:14:32.720 Power hour will continue in a second.
00:14:35.240 Give me 60 seconds.
00:14:36.400 Ready or not.
00:14:37.200 Here comes the lawn mowing season.
00:14:39.260 Your yard's going to start growing like, well, a weed and kind of it.
00:14:45.920 Anyway, get on top of the best lawn mower available today and cut your lawn in about half the time.
00:14:55.640 It's a Hustler Turf zero turn mower.
00:14:58.120 It's fast, it's sleek, it's built like a tank.
00:15:01.720 They are most famous Hustler for industrial settings.
00:15:05.980 So people who have, you know, acres and acres and acres and acres and acres, you know, football fields, baseball diamonds, the center of the highway.
00:15:15.580 Anyway, this is who Hustler has made lawn mowers for the industry.
00:15:20.340 So they were built and designed to be used eight hours a day every single day.
00:15:27.120 You're not going to have a problem with this lawn mower.
00:15:29.760 It doesn't.
00:15:30.260 It's not going to break.
00:15:31.160 It's not going to break down because you're using it.
00:15:33.600 What?
00:15:34.020 Two hours a week.
00:15:35.460 It hasn't even started.
00:15:37.220 Hustler is the best zero turn lawn mower on the market because they invented it.
00:15:43.200 They perfected it.
00:15:43.940 And it has always been made for really heavy duty use.
00:15:48.040 Now you can get it in a size made for you.
00:15:51.340 I want you to test drive.
00:15:52.460 Go and, you know, lawn boy or whoever is making the best lawn mower.
00:15:57.000 Go to Home Depot and drive it.
00:15:58.740 Look at it.
00:15:59.580 Then do yourself a favor and find a Hustler dealer near you and test drive a Hustler.
00:16:05.840 You'll find them at HustlerTurf.com.
00:16:09.180 HustlerTurf.com.
00:16:10.360 Dollar for dollar.
00:16:11.140 Pound for pound.
00:16:12.080 There is no better lawn mower out there.
00:16:14.320 It's HustlerTurf.com.
00:16:16.980 10 seconds.
00:16:17.500 Station ID.
00:16:29.580 All right.
00:16:31.580 So let me talk about Ashley Babbitt.
00:16:33.720 Do you remember who Ashley Babbitt is, Pat?
00:16:36.500 Oh, yeah.
00:16:37.120 The woman who was shot at the Capitol building.
00:16:40.240 Okay.
00:16:40.560 So explain what happened to her as you remember.
00:16:43.280 She was about to climb through the door that had been broken.
00:16:49.500 And one of the Capitol police officers shot her in the neck.
00:16:53.400 And shot her.
00:16:54.860 And she shot her.
00:16:56.180 Correct.
00:16:57.180 Did he see her?
00:16:59.580 Did he see her?
00:17:00.940 Oh, yeah.
00:17:01.380 It's my recollection pointing right at her.
00:17:04.280 Because it was my recollection he shot through the door.
00:17:08.380 But maybe he did see her breaking through.
00:17:11.200 I thought he saw her.
00:17:12.600 Yeah.
00:17:12.880 I thought he did.
00:17:14.240 All right.
00:17:14.540 So this is a really dicey one.
00:17:16.100 Because I don't want to do anything that is supportive of the January 6th attack on the Capitol.
00:17:22.760 It was not the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.
00:17:29.340 No.
00:17:29.420 In fact, it wasn't the worst attack on our democracy since summer.
00:17:34.620 But it was bad.
00:17:36.980 It was really bad.
00:17:38.080 I want nothing to do with it.
00:17:39.640 However, her family is now coming out and they are filing a civil lawsuit against the officer who killed her.
00:17:53.240 They're looking for $10 million right now.
00:17:57.940 They're not charging the officer with anything.
00:18:00.500 The DOJ said they're not going to charge him for anything.
00:18:04.120 But the family says the actual evidence is this.
00:18:08.680 The officer shot an unarmed woman who was not an immediate threat to him or any member of Congress.
00:18:14.860 That's inconsistent with any claim of self-defense or the defense of others, period.
00:18:19.280 So this is going to be a tough one.
00:18:22.320 Because, A, it was January 6th.
00:18:24.680 You're breaking into the Capitol.
00:18:25.960 You're breaking in.
00:18:26.720 I would support somebody who had this exact same situation at their house.
00:18:32.940 Let's say you were inside your house and you had BLM people surrounding your house and they were trying to break in and you shot them through the door.
00:18:41.020 I would say, congratulations, you know, collect $200, you know, and here's Park Place, you know, I mean, there should be no penalty for defending your home.
00:18:54.580 The Capitol is the home of our republic, if you will, and they were breaking in, violently breaking in, not necessarily her, but she was right there in front and she was trying to climb through the broken door.
00:19:11.020 And, you know, I don't have a problem with the officers shooting her.
00:19:16.640 I don't like it, but I didn't like what she was doing either.
00:19:20.920 And, you know, while the officer wasn't fearing for his life, he didn't know she didn't have, others had guns.
00:19:27.720 And if she went through and got through, others would follow.
00:19:32.140 Where do you stand on this, Pat?
00:19:36.180 It's tough.
00:19:37.360 It's really hard.
00:19:38.540 I go back and forth on it.
00:19:41.020 At the time, I thought it was excessive that she was shot.
00:19:44.180 I did, too.
00:19:44.860 I did, too.
00:19:46.320 The more we found out about the rioting, the less sympathetic I was to anybody who was in there.
00:19:55.660 But I don't think she needed to be shot.
00:19:59.820 It's a really, it's a tough one.
00:20:01.480 It was so tragic because she wasn't really, I mean, other than, you know, trying to get through the door, I don't think she would have perpetrated any violence.
00:20:11.380 Right.
00:20:12.000 But I'm glad this is going to court because I am so tired of people not pushing back.
00:20:18.440 You know what I mean?
00:20:19.200 I mean, just accepting, okay, well, that's what it is.
00:20:21.880 I'm not saying that they should win.
00:20:23.840 I don't know.
00:20:25.480 I, exactly like Pat, felt that it was excessive at the beginning.
00:20:29.560 But I want to be consistent as well and say, I wasn't on the other side of the door.
00:20:34.580 I don't know what the officer was thinking.
00:20:39.440 And, you know, as we always say, you don't want to be shot.
00:20:43.640 Don't do that.
00:20:45.180 Right.
00:20:45.640 That's right.
00:20:46.100 And that's one of those things you don't do.
00:20:49.040 So, you know, I'll be interested in this.
00:20:51.660 The reason why I put this in a good news category is because it shows people are just not cheap and they're not going to take it.
00:21:00.160 You know, this isn't about taking of the Capitol.
00:21:02.280 Well, this is about the taking of someone's life and challenging the narrative.
00:21:08.200 Was that justified?
00:21:11.300 I think it was, but I'd like a jury to hear it.
00:21:15.380 I'd like to hear the whole case.
00:21:17.580 After all, we know what happened to Officer Sicknick was not true.
00:21:22.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:21:25.280 All right.
00:21:26.260 So I was thinking about creating my own system of money by gathering up every computer chip I could find and then selling them online.
00:21:37.100 Yeah.
00:21:37.360 I call it chippedocurrency.
00:21:41.560 Holy cow.
00:21:42.300 Who writes this stuff?
00:21:43.000 I waited too late to get into the chip business.
00:21:48.220 And now if something goes wrong with my car, I'm in real trouble.
00:21:53.200 You're in real trouble.
00:21:54.800 Ford is in real trouble.
00:21:56.960 Ford said that they're going to have a hard time producing all of the cars and trucks they need for this next quarter because chips are out.
00:22:03.220 Do you have any idea?
00:22:05.420 I mean, chips have cost me $3,000 for a chip in my car.
00:22:09.520 $3,000.
00:22:10.620 Thank goodness I had CarShield because they covered it.

00:23:21.000 By the way, our Friday exclusive today on BlazeTV for Blaze subscribers only commercial-free interview with Lee Schooland.
00:23:31.380 This is a woman that survived the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution in Mao's China.
00:23:38.460 She was a kid, and her and her whole family were marked as a, I'm quoting, black family.
00:23:46.540 There were black families and red families.
00:23:49.520 Red family, you were with Mao, and everything was okay.
00:23:54.000 If you were marked a black family, you were disloyal, and you had to go into re-education camps.
00:24:00.420 Many of them were just brutally tortured and killed.
00:24:03.840 Well, her father was jailed.
00:24:05.520 Her mother was beaten by red family neighbors.
00:24:08.880 Not the government.
00:24:10.220 Neighbors.
00:24:11.480 See, that's how you got to be a red family in good standing.
00:24:16.500 You became the police.
00:24:18.380 You just took care of it yourself for social justice.
00:24:21.680 She warns America, I've seen this movie before.
00:24:27.320 Today, 5 p.m., blazetv.com slash Glenn.
00:24:32.500 Use the promo code Glenn this week for 20% off right now, but make sure you watch that today at 5.
00:24:40.680 All right, some more good news.
00:24:41.740 This one's coming from Chicago.
00:24:43.080 The mother of a 13-year-old in Chicago says she, quote, cannot praise the two police officers who rushed her son to the hospital enough after he was wounded in a drive-by shooting this week.
00:24:56.500 Now, you'll notice that this story is not about the drive-by shooting or the number of shootings and deaths in Chicago.
00:25:06.580 No, this is news because here's a mom praising the cops.
00:25:14.720 Quote, I'm highly grateful for you guys.
00:25:17.960 Thank you.
00:25:18.780 It was a wonderful job, she said, during a press conference.
00:25:22.100 She says that they saved her son's life because they took him into the hospital in the patrol car instead of waiting for an ambulance, which, you know, can you imagine if he would have died and it would have been a hostile police family?
00:25:40.740 I bet they would have charged them with something because they should have waited for the ambulance.
00:25:47.280 She said that Julius Gibbons was in the back of the squad car.
00:25:56.100 He was one of the officers, and he said he was in and out of, the son was in and out of consciousness.
00:26:03.160 They were trying to keep him alive and keep him up.
00:26:05.820 He was shot in the back and the stomach.
00:26:07.560 The doctor said that he's going to have long-term injuries, but he's going to live.
00:26:15.340 She also said in the press conference, this violence has got to stop.
00:26:19.920 These kids don't deserve it.
00:26:21.480 They're babies laying in these hospital beds.
00:26:24.780 Nobody is talking about the violence in Chicago.
00:26:27.380 Perhaps conservatives should.
00:26:31.000 If we want to talk about real violence and the number of gun deaths, let's talk about Chicago.
00:26:37.160 Let's talk about New York.
00:26:38.680 Let's talk about places in these inner cities where black families are trapped and they have no way to protect themselves, and many of them are afraid of their own children's friends.
00:26:55.740 Something has to change here.
00:26:57.900 All right, coming up in the hour number three, I have the guy who is really kind of one of the stars of this movement.
00:27:08.680 So we're going to go into this story a little later, but I wanted to share this good news.
00:27:12.580 What's happening now in the country, and we told you that critical race theory is a poison, and we told you that it is in your school, I don't care where you live, it's in your school.
00:27:27.160 Well, in a wealthy suburb of Dallas here, it's just down the street from where I live, a town called Southlake.
00:27:37.860 Southlake has exploded.
00:27:42.620 First, it exploded because it was racist.
00:27:45.500 It was so racist.
00:27:46.740 These kids were singing a rap song, and they were using really bad language in that rap song.
00:27:53.260 So instead of saying, you know, hey, parents, where are you?
00:27:57.540 Why are your kids listening to this rap song?
00:27:59.500 Or, hey, rappers, let's not use that language.
00:28:04.160 You know, we believe in freedom of speech, and I believe in freedom of choice.
00:28:09.340 If that's what you think is okay, I think you're wrong, but you have a right to do it.
00:28:14.960 Instead, it was made to look like all these kids in Southlake, Texas are racist.
00:28:21.260 And so they did a deep dive into microaggressions, bullying, and racially charged incidents that happen three times per month, they say.
00:28:35.680 Okay, if they happen three times a month, this district has 8,500 kids.
00:28:42.520 That means 0.3% of the students every year come into a problem, 0.3%.
00:28:51.060 That is not systematic racist.
00:28:53.020 Do you know what that is?
00:28:53.900 Stupid kids being stupid and mean to each other.
00:28:56.820 So they rushed into a cultural competence plan, and what they did was unbelievable.
00:29:09.220 You'll hear about it coming up in hour number three, and you'll meet the guy who's really part of these parents that are so brave standing up against it.
00:29:18.320 But, Pat, do you know who was leading this charge?
00:29:22.560 I didn't until you mentioned it off the air.
00:29:25.240 I had no idea.
00:29:27.240 It's pretty amazing.
00:29:28.920 So you know who these people are, at least one of these people.
00:29:32.340 I don't know.
00:29:33.140 I had no idea.
00:29:34.420 Russell Maryland?
00:29:35.480 Yeah.
00:29:35.920 And Robin Cornish, a widow of another Dallas Cowboys player.
00:29:40.420 Russell Maryland, big time football great.
00:29:44.140 NFL football great.
00:29:45.720 Yeah.
00:29:45.900 Really good.
00:29:46.880 Okay.
00:29:47.060 So they both have kids in the district, and they have been all over MSNBC and everything else about how Southlake harbors all of these racists.
00:30:00.920 Oh, my gosh.
00:30:03.660 Southlake is really, I think, in a way, the product of Gateway Church.
00:30:13.680 Would you agree with this, Pat?
00:30:15.020 The people who are in Southlake, that church has such a massive influence on Southlake.
00:30:23.720 And the pastor is really great.
00:30:27.960 The people at that church are really, really great people.
00:30:32.000 I love them.
00:30:33.360 And I've attended several of their services.
00:30:36.640 I mean, they're just, they're great.
00:30:38.320 And Southlake just has this really good community spirit and just a different, I mean, I was at a car detail shop the other day.
00:30:49.460 And I'm talking to this guy, and he's got a big beard, and, you know, he's tatted up.
00:30:55.020 And he was like, you know, I was talking to a friend of mine at church the other day.
00:30:58.640 And we were talking, and he's like, you know, I just love the Lord so much.
00:31:03.460 And you're like, what?
00:31:05.320 Where am I?
00:31:06.880 Where am I?
00:31:08.040 Well, the answer is you're in Texas, and it's a good thing.
00:31:11.980 Southlake, there are racist places in the South, and I'm sure there are racist places here in Texas.
00:31:18.060 Southlake isn't one of them.
00:31:19.780 And to show you how non-systematic racist this school system is, can you talk about the disparity between what blacks and whites do in that school district?
00:31:32.180 It's shocking, Glenn.
00:31:33.880 It is shocking.
00:31:36.080 Get ready to throw up a little bit in your mouth, because it's just that bad.
00:31:41.520 There is no racial performance gap.
00:31:44.780 Can you believe it?
00:31:45.920 I'm sorry, what?
00:31:46.560 There is.
00:31:48.000 That's how racist this place is.
00:31:49.940 That's how racist this place is.
00:31:51.340 There is no racial performance gap.
00:31:55.160 Do you know how rare that is in the United States or anywhere in the world?
00:31:59.980 Well, hang on.
00:32:00.640 Hang on just a second.
00:32:01.900 Okay.
00:32:02.160 That only shows you how racist Southlake is, because they have bullied blacks into buying into the white mentality that this is a meritocracy.
00:32:12.600 Yeah.
00:32:13.080 That doing well actually helps you in the long run.
00:32:16.980 Right.
00:32:17.500 Right.
00:32:18.120 Yeah, they buy into that.
00:32:18.840 That's how bad things are.
00:32:21.420 Okay, so here's what happened.
00:32:22.840 Again, the parents found out about all of the stuff that was going on, this wild overreaction, and they have gone crazy.
00:32:33.340 There's an election.
00:32:34.740 Two school board members are probably going to lose their seat.
00:32:38.360 There's all kinds of parental pressure and community pressure on the schools to stop all of this cultural critical race theory.
00:32:48.200 They found out that in 2019, the administrators were given a preview of the kind of instruction they'd be expected to oversee and carry out under a cultural competency regime.
00:33:01.280 That's what the city wanted to do.
00:33:03.020 They were like, you know what?
00:33:03.720 Let's just do cultural competency, you know, and make sure everybody is competent, you know, in the culture.
00:33:10.040 What?
00:33:11.200 Teachers and administrators who choose to treat students, parents, and colleagues equally, regardless of their skin color or ethnicity, are accused of cultural blindness.
00:33:24.140 Wait, what?
00:33:26.220 A state in which differences are ignored and one proceeds as differences don't exist, white privilege is there.
00:33:36.460 And it's able to, white privilege is able to navigate daily life in the American culture without having to think about race.
00:33:43.940 So if Southlake treated you exactly the same, you had a problem.
00:33:52.220 Administrators occurred to construct white identity, discussing what does it mean to you to be white and whiteness, as well as naming some characteristics of white culture.
00:34:03.160 Do you remember when Katie Couric said, I said, I just think that Barack Obama has a deep-seated problem with the white culture?
00:34:15.860 Yes.
00:34:16.100 Do you remember that?
00:34:16.660 Yeah.
00:34:17.040 That was the quote.
00:34:18.500 Yes.
00:34:18.960 Okay.
00:34:19.180 I think he is a racist.
00:34:22.060 No, that's not exactly right.
00:34:23.860 I think he just has a deep-seated hatred for the white culture.
00:34:27.700 I was talking about critical race theory, but I didn't know it at the time.
00:34:31.320 Listen to this.
00:34:33.100 Administrators are encouraged to construct naming characteristics of white culture.
00:34:41.320 And I remember Katie Couric going, what was white culture?
00:34:44.120 What is white culture?
00:34:45.440 What do you mean by that?
00:34:46.580 What is white culture?
00:34:47.620 I don't know, Katie.
00:34:48.580 Why don't you ask these people what white culture is?
00:34:50.960 Seems to me I was right, you dim bulb.
00:34:55.800 I'm sorry.
00:34:56.420 It's supposed to be good news.
00:34:57.380 Anyway, there's more on this.
00:34:58.860 We're going to get into it next hour.
00:35:00.220 But I want you to know, people are standing up, and it is not only there.
00:35:04.620 I will give you another story.
00:35:06.160 The Ohio legislature has approved a ban on teachers indoctrinating students with critical race theory in school,
00:35:14.180 and the governor just signed it into law.
00:35:17.640 One more thing I want you to do.

00:37:43.180 So, Pat, we're going to continue our good news into the next hour.
00:37:48.060 Stand by for that.
00:37:48.820 But in the Florida Keys, they're doing an experiment, and they're wiping out all mosquitoes.
00:38:00.460 They're releasing 500 million gene-hacked mosquitoes.
00:38:06.980 So, they're all male.
00:38:09.180 And they have hacked the gene, so they pass something on to the female.
00:38:16.600 And when the female reproduces, if it's a female, they're the only ones that bite.
00:38:23.160 If it's a female, they die out.
00:38:24.980 If this works, that is genocide.
00:38:29.040 That's mosquito genocide.
00:38:30.900 And I hate mosquitoes.
00:38:33.360 I don't want to live around mosquitoes.
00:38:34.480 I hate them, but I think there's probably some purpose for mosquitoes.
00:38:41.260 When has it been okay?
00:38:42.860 We can't touch the rainforest because some unknown animal or some unknown plant that we don't even know is being destroyed,
00:38:50.600 and we're making them extinct.
00:38:53.720 But we don't have a problem making mosquitoes extinct?
00:38:57.420 Does that sound smart to you?
00:39:00.440 That's another hard one because, yeah, I want mosquitoes to go away.
00:39:05.940 Me too.
00:39:07.360 This would only kill something like 2% of all mosquitoes, though.
00:39:10.380 This doesn't do very much, which is why some of the residents are pissed.
00:39:14.980 Go ahead.
00:39:15.640 A lot of the residents are mad because they're releasing half a billion.
00:39:18.720 They're not even sure what's going to happen here.
00:39:21.200 And even if it's completely successful, it only wipes out 2%.
00:39:25.480 Yeah, but isn't that because it's only a certain kind of mosquito?
00:39:28.820 The idea is to be able to do this with all mosquitoes.
00:39:32.500 And I'm for the ratification of mosquitoes, but does somebody know what they do besides bite people?
00:39:48.760 Hello, America.
00:39:54.340 It's Friday.
00:39:55.640 Well, I set out last night to put together a show that would have some good news in it.
00:40:02.320 And I thought, you know, if I could just find, you know, a story of somebody who died in a fiery plane crash with all of their children,
00:40:12.200 I'll count that as a good one because I could say at least that wasn't you on the plane.
00:40:17.160 But I actually found some good news.
00:40:21.580 And not only did I find an hour's worth, I still have more.
00:40:27.700 Yeah, it's Friday.
00:40:29.780 Let's celebrate some things that are going right in the nation.
00:40:34.740 We begin in 60 seconds.
00:40:36.340 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:40:42.420 So Patricia lives in Michigan, and at one time she was in constant pain in her knees and her hips.
00:40:48.580 She's now in her 70s, and she thought, you know, this is what happens when you turn 70.
00:40:53.720 Oh, no, don't say that, Patricia.
00:40:56.460 It was really uncomfortable.
00:40:58.320 She had difficulty getting in and out of chairs in her bed.
00:41:00.860 One day she heard me talking about Relief Factor on the radio, and that was the day that Patricia decided, you know what?
00:41:07.400 I'm not taking the pain anymore.
00:41:09.400 She had tried everything.
00:41:11.720 This was the day that she tried one more thing.
00:41:15.280 She didn't know if the Relief Factor stuff, as she said, would work, but she was tired of doing nothing about it.
00:41:21.240 So she ordered the three-week quick start.
00:41:23.600 Literally within a few days of starting to take it, she realized her pain was fading away and her mobility was returning.
00:41:29.900 Patricia, I am so glad you got your life back.
00:41:34.060 Now what are you going to do?
00:41:35.640 Relief Factor.
00:41:36.560 It's not a drug developed by doctors.
00:41:38.320 70% of the people who try Relief Factor go on to buy more.
00:41:42.020 That's why they offer the three-week trial period.
00:41:45.160 Within three weeks, you're pretty much going to know if it's going to make an impact with you at all.
00:41:49.320 So are you part of the 70% that actually can have your life changed?
00:41:53.420 Try it.
00:41:54.320 ReliefFactor.com.
00:41:55.300 800-583-84.
00:41:57.060 800-583-84.
00:41:58.560 Or it's ReliefFactor.com.
00:42:07.540 So I've been looking for good news.
00:42:09.600 Let me give you a couple of stories and then we're going to get into some stuff with Joe Biden, which I think is fantastic.
00:42:14.380 First, the Sex Pistols.
00:42:19.480 You know, man, Johnny Rotten.
00:42:21.960 Johnny Rotten has come out and he says, America is on the verge of total and complete collapse.
00:42:29.560 Now, he's not a British citizen anymore.
00:42:32.440 This is his adopted country.
00:42:33.960 He, you know, he was with the Sex Pistols from Great Britain and he became an American citizen.
00:42:40.400 He said that colleges and university students are to blame.
00:42:45.200 He said, these people aren't really genuinely disenfranchised at all.
00:42:51.100 They just view themselves as special.
00:42:53.460 It's selfishness.
00:42:54.880 And in that respect, it's divisive and can only lead to trouble.
00:42:58.920 And I can't believe TV channels that give these lunatics the space.
00:43:03.260 This is Johnny Rotten saying this from the punk rock band, the Sex Pistols.
00:43:11.620 This is my good news headline on this story.
00:43:15.440 Wow.
00:43:16.020 Rock and roll still exists.
00:43:20.200 Where is the rock and roll attitude?
00:43:23.320 We're nothing but a bunch of wussies.
00:43:26.100 That's all we are.
00:43:28.060 We have turned up.
00:43:28.700 All rockers are like, I mean, everybody's disenfranchised and I don't want to disenfranchise.
00:43:36.380 God forbid I have an opinion.
00:43:38.340 What is rock and roll?
00:43:40.660 That's the whole attitude.
00:43:42.460 Anyway, he said, where's this moral majority nonsense coming from when they're basically the ones doing all the wrong for being so bloody, judgmental and vicious against anyone that doesn't go with their current popular opinion?
00:43:56.620 It's horribly, horribly spoiled children that are coming out of our colleges and universities with crap for brains.
00:44:07.540 He said he has no respect for President Joe Biden.
00:44:11.540 He just follows the latest woke fashion trend and is going to be the catalyst for the country's utter collapse.
00:44:19.500 He said, I love my country, which is America now.
00:44:23.840 He said, I love being on a tour bus.
00:44:25.540 I stare out the window.
00:44:26.480 I'm amazed and transfixed by the difference of scenery from one state to another.
00:44:30.880 The forest up north, the swamps down south, all of it is beautiful.
00:44:35.460 The people are very, very varied and very forgiving.
00:44:39.900 A new country, new open mindedness, I suppose.
00:44:42.980 Like they're really not stuck down and nailed to the floor by class warfare.
00:44:48.820 Here's a guy that knows it.
00:44:50.680 I mean, that's what he was rebelling against in Great Britain.
00:44:54.460 And I mean, a return of rock and roll, a return of rock and roll.
00:44:59.620 It's interesting to look at it that way because really the establishment is the Biden stuff, right?
00:45:05.460 It's the it's the wokeness is the establishment now.
00:45:09.700 And he's fighting against that.
00:45:11.320 Yeah, I remember you were in Muse.
00:45:13.660 I said someplace somebody asked me, you know, what my favorite group was.
00:45:17.940 This is 20 years ago.
00:45:18.780 And I said Muse and I said their lyrics are fantastic because it was all about, you know,
00:45:24.840 the United States of Eurasia and how the the everybody had to be exactly the same
00:45:31.220 and the corporations and the war machine and and all of it was just controlling people's minds.
00:45:37.480 And, you know, green was the new red.
00:45:40.220 It was brilliant, brilliant stuff.
00:45:42.480 Well, Rolling Stone magazine wrote about it and Muse came out and said, we want nothing to do with him.
00:45:48.780 We don't like him.
00:45:50.420 And I'm like, OK, I don't really give a flying crap if you like me or not.
00:45:54.560 But you're wrong.
00:45:56.600 And I wrote a letter to the editor.
00:45:58.760 I don't know if I don't think Rolling Stone ever published it, but it was a response to Muse.
00:46:04.520 And it was like, dude, we're on the same side.
00:46:07.080 You don't like big government and I don't like big government.
00:46:10.700 And here here they are now.
00:46:12.700 Where's where's Muse now?
00:46:14.760 Where where are the lyrics now?
00:46:16.520 I mean, it is so clear what is happening to the world.
00:46:20.620 And where's rock and roll?
00:46:21.960 You know, I knew when Van Morrison wrote a song against the covid mask business and the lockdowns and he asked Eric Clapton to record it.
00:46:34.420 And I think Clapton did.
00:46:37.160 I think it was released last December.
00:46:39.960 Maybe we should look this up.
00:46:41.220 But Van Morrison released a song himself that he wrote that was really anti-lockdown.
00:46:47.620 He got major hits for it all over in England.
00:46:52.520 He wrote another one, gave it to Eric Clapton.
00:46:55.520 Clapton was going to record it.
00:46:57.020 Maybe he did.
00:46:58.440 And and everybody went crazy on Eric Clapton.
00:47:01.660 Yeah, and recently Mick Jagger went through the same thing.
00:47:05.960 He wrote an anti lockdown, anti lockdown song.
00:47:10.900 And I mean, people are pissed at him.
00:47:14.500 And so this is the first time since maybe 1950s with the jiggling hips of Elvis.
00:47:21.880 This is the first time I have seen Mick Jagger and and Eric Clapton called dangerous rebels.
00:47:35.600 They're in their 70s, man.
00:47:38.260 They just haven't given up on rock and roll.
00:47:40.320 OK, some other good news.
00:47:41.740 And I mean, I know this isn't really good news, but hear me out.
00:47:45.400 And the International Space Station cameras have picked up a V-shaped UFO and it was it was aired.
00:47:57.060 There's video out there.
00:47:58.240 A an unknown flying object that is V-shaped had a close encounter with the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule and then with the International Space Station.
00:48:10.720 So I don't I mean, I don't know what it is, but I'm rooting for aliens.
00:48:16.980 I mean, wouldn't it honestly, wouldn't it be almost a blessed relief if we get up one day tomorrow and on CNN?
00:48:29.220 And I'd be like, hey, let's listen to them, like, give them a chance.
00:48:43.480 Give them a chance.
00:48:44.940 It might turn out better.
00:48:46.880 It's a cookbook.
00:48:47.640 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:48:48.200 But how long do we have some semblance of normalcy before they cook us and eat us?
00:48:53.280 I'll take that.
00:48:54.260 But when we come back, I want to talk a little bit about the real ratings that that Joe Biden got.
00:49:05.080 Apparently, not only were the ratings not good, which is actually a bad thing.
00:49:10.980 More people should watch this because it tells you everything you need to know.
00:49:14.660 But the reaction from the mainly Democratic viewers, not good.
00:49:24.080 We'll get into that here in just 60 seconds.
00:49:26.140 Stand by.
00:49:26.520 First, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the clock is ticking on the American economy.
00:49:31.780 We are headed into a boom and we're headed for inflation.
00:49:37.840 We're headed for all kinds of things.
00:49:39.740 And then I think we're going to have what's called a melt up.
00:49:42.840 It's going to go up and then come crashing down.
00:49:44.780 If you're thinking about buying or selling a home right now or both, you may be literally getting in, getting in under the wire on this one.
00:49:56.320 It's going to become more and more difficult.
00:49:58.300 And the longer this stuff goes on with Biden and the new Green Deal, it's going to be harder to sell your house because has it been greenified?
00:50:06.520 Do you have all the government approved changes made to your house?
00:50:10.000 And it's just going to become a pain in the ass.
00:50:12.940 And believe me, it is coming.
00:50:15.020 So if you're looking to sell a house or buy a house, now may be the right time to do it.
00:50:19.580 Please, if you're buying a house, don't buy too much of a house.
00:50:22.600 Don't because we always do this.
00:50:24.440 I do.
00:50:24.840 Everybody does this.
00:50:26.300 Yeah, I know.
00:50:26.880 But it's a good year.
00:50:28.100 And next year is going to be great.

00:50:56.060 10 seconds.
00:50:56.800 Station ID.
00:50:57.660 So the approval rating of Barack Obama when he first gave his first speech to Congress was 68%.
00:51:16.640 George Bush gave his first speech.
00:51:19.480 It was 66%.
00:51:21.080 When Donald Trump gave it, it was, I think, 60% or 61%.
00:51:29.500 What was Joe Biden?
00:51:32.640 In an incredibly new low, he got a score of 51%.
00:51:40.580 Of those who watched it, largely Democrats, 51% approved of Biden's comments.
00:51:50.140 Now, everybody in corporate media was like, oh, no, very high marks, very positive reaction.
00:51:55.940 No, it's not, actually.
00:51:57.140 It's 51%.
00:51:58.020 It's a historic low by at least 10 points.
00:52:02.580 So, I mean, what are you saying?
00:52:04.820 You know, oh, they loved it.
00:52:06.420 No, they didn't.
00:52:06.960 They liked Trump better.
00:52:09.540 What are you going to do about that?
00:52:12.380 People said, 60% said Biden made an appropriate effort to reach Republicans.
00:52:18.820 That's just Democratic thinking for you.
00:52:20.700 Yeah.
00:52:20.880 What?
00:52:21.340 What did he, how did he reach out?
00:52:23.320 You know what?
00:52:23.700 You know what he reached out?
00:52:24.520 He said, look, I want to hear your ideas, but we can't wait.
00:52:27.920 So let's just pass the things we all agree on, pass the Dreamers Act, open up the borders.
00:52:34.980 I mean, it was, it was all stuff that we were like, I don't agree.
00:52:37.620 We don't agree on that.
00:52:39.740 There's no, there's, that's not one of the things we agree on and they are convinced.
00:52:46.760 No, I think actually Donald Trump believed his own press.
00:52:54.080 I think Donald Trump would say things and he'd be like, we all agree on that.
00:52:57.980 And I think he actually would believe those things.
00:53:00.760 You know what I mean?
00:53:01.540 I think he would convince himself that those things were true and he believed it.
00:53:07.080 And so you had to look at him differently in that.
00:53:10.020 I don't think Joe Biden believes any of this stuff.
00:53:12.060 He knows better than that to think that, oh, come on, Republicans.
00:53:15.280 One of the things he said we can unite on is the, the assault weapons ban.
00:53:21.220 No, we can't unite on that.
00:53:23.400 Yeah, he has said that multiple times.
00:53:24.880 We don't agree with that.
00:53:25.320 There's, there's no way the right agrees with that.
00:53:29.480 Right, right.
00:53:31.280 So that, that's the truth on the speech.
00:53:34.680 And it is, it's massively down from Trump's early ratings.
00:53:40.640 He's not doing well.
00:53:42.860 He's not doing well.
00:53:43.860 And in more ways than one.
00:53:45.180 Do we have the situation shows yesterday that he's not doing real well.
00:53:51.060 He was getting done with his speech and then he started looking around for his mask, which
00:53:55.260 he of course always has right away because it's second nature for him.
00:53:59.800 He's always wearing his mask.
00:54:00.860 Right, yeah, yeah.
00:54:01.500 But here's what happened.
00:54:02.640 Okay, so there's the exit music for him and his people start coming up to help him out,
00:54:11.800 help him off the stage.
00:54:13.820 And he's looking all over the place.
00:54:15.500 He's looking through his notes.
00:54:16.060 Looking through his notes, looking at the podium, looking underneath the podium.
00:54:20.080 Where's my mask?
00:54:20.840 You can hear him.
00:54:22.020 Hey.
00:54:22.260 Yeah, he's asking, where's my mask?
00:54:24.160 I have to put my mask on to get my pudding.
00:54:26.440 And then Jill is looking through the book.
00:54:29.560 Yeah, she's looking.
00:54:32.600 He'll be in trouble again.
00:54:34.700 Who are you getting in trouble with?
00:54:35.880 You're the president.
00:54:36.980 So then he finally finds his mask.
00:54:39.220 It's in his butt.
00:54:40.520 He pulls it out of his butt.
00:54:41.720 It's in his back pocket.
00:54:43.020 It's actually in his back pocket.
00:54:44.860 But he pulls it out of his butt.
00:54:46.640 There's my butt mask.
00:54:48.300 There it is.
00:54:51.120 Pull it out of his butt.
00:54:52.500 You know what?
00:54:54.480 I shan't say that it wasn't in his butt.
00:54:58.000 It may have been there.
00:54:58.980 I think it was.
00:55:00.000 I think he reached behind him and pulled it out.
00:55:02.520 So what do we take from that?
00:55:05.500 So yesterday, not really a good day for him.
00:55:08.000 He was in Georgia, and he was giving a speech.
00:55:11.640 And this is in Duluth, Georgia.
00:55:14.480 And this is an exact quote.
00:55:17.880 He's talking about all the reforms he's making.
00:55:20.560 And a heckler starts in.
00:55:23.920 And he says, end detention now.
00:55:27.700 End detention now.
00:55:29.700 We voted for you, Joe.
00:55:31.820 End detention now.
00:55:34.500 Okay.
00:55:34.900 End detention?
00:55:35.780 Honestly.
00:55:36.520 Yes.
00:55:37.040 Thank you.
00:55:37.540 I was going to say, honestly.
00:55:38.680 Do you even know what that guy's talking about?
00:55:41.160 Are you talking about after school?
00:55:42.480 I have to stay after school?
00:55:43.800 Is that what we're talking about?
00:55:45.120 It could be.
00:55:46.340 It could be.
00:55:47.480 All right.
00:55:47.720 We are in such different planets and detention now.
00:55:52.120 Is that the border?
00:55:52.980 Is that school?
00:55:54.520 What is it?
00:55:55.100 Neither of those.
00:55:56.700 It's getting rid of prisons.
00:56:01.220 Wow.
00:56:02.460 Okay.
00:56:02.940 Don't detain anybody in a prison anymore?
00:56:06.000 Yeah.
00:56:06.140 Well, at least not.
00:56:07.620 They're starting with corporate prisons.
00:56:11.120 Okay.
00:56:11.460 So private prisons.
00:56:12.460 Non-government-run prisons.
00:56:14.180 Now, I just would like to point out, why is it wrong to have a public-private prison
00:56:21.480 and right to have a public-private partnership with everything else?
00:56:28.400 Why are corporations only evil when it comes to the prison system?
00:56:34.200 Democrats, can you answer that?
00:56:36.440 I mean, my phone is wide open.
00:56:40.820 888-727-BECK.
00:56:44.240 I'll take your Democratic phone call right now.
00:56:48.220 Help me out.
00:56:49.300 Why is it okay to have public-private partnerships everywhere else but not prisons?
00:56:55.280 What is it?
00:56:56.180 Still waiting for that phone call.
00:57:00.660 We'll continue because I may be waiting a while on that.
00:57:04.680 So anyway, Joe says, I agree with you.
00:57:09.320 I'm working on it, man.
00:57:11.460 I love it when he says, man.
00:57:12.820 I do too.
00:57:13.680 I'm working on it, man.
00:57:16.460 Quote, give me another five days.
00:57:20.620 What?
00:57:21.140 There should be no private prisons, and we're working to close all of them.
00:57:28.880 Oh, my God.
00:57:29.900 Now, I'm guessing the give me five days is hyperbole.
00:57:35.200 It's just like, ah, give me a break.
00:57:36.720 I mean, you know, look at what we've accomplished.
00:57:38.620 Give me another five days and let me show you what I can change.
00:57:42.340 But we're working to close all of them.
00:57:45.400 Where are those prisoners going to go?
00:57:47.520 I just, yeah, if you put them in federal prisons or the government-run prisons, isn't that an overcrowding situation then?
00:57:56.860 I would think so.
00:57:58.060 Maybe we would just have to release those prisons or release all those prisoners.
00:58:01.880 I'm not sure.
00:58:03.280 How do you close all corporate prisons?
00:58:09.580 I don't know.
00:58:10.420 Give him another five days and he'll find out.
00:58:13.820 By the way, we found out.
00:58:15.220 This is really good news.
00:58:16.160 We found out that Stacey Abrams is going to write some more romance novels.
00:58:23.800 And she told the Wall Street Journal that she's writing another romance novel right now.
00:58:28.880 And I don't know about you, but when I just even think of Stacey Abrams, I mean, I just get all hot and sweaty.
00:58:37.960 Really?
00:58:39.040 Really?
00:58:39.540 Yeah.
00:58:40.100 Yeah.
00:58:40.500 Remember the butter man, the guy, you know, what was it?
00:58:44.320 I can't believe it's not butter.
00:58:46.120 Yeah.
00:58:46.560 It was Fabio.
00:58:48.120 Where the hell is Fabio now?
00:58:49.740 Where is he?
00:58:50.360 I wonder what he looks like.
00:58:52.560 Wouldn't it be great if he looked more fat and dumpy than you do?
00:58:55.680 That's just not possible.
00:58:57.100 I don't think that's even possible.
00:58:58.480 Oh, look it up.
00:58:59.140 Look him up.
00:58:59.680 Look him up.
00:59:00.100 I'm looking it up now.
00:59:00.760 Oh, man.
00:59:01.160 If he's like balding and fat and looks like me, I'd love this.
00:59:06.280 No, based on these pictures, no, our dreams did not come true.
00:59:12.040 You don't have to shatter it that quickly.
00:59:14.500 Yeah.
00:59:14.740 He looks about the same as he ever did.
00:59:16.300 You know, I'm still looking, Glenn.
00:59:17.400 Still looking.
00:59:18.400 He's made some pact with the devil.
00:59:20.260 He looks the same as he did 30 years ago.
00:59:23.000 It's just not right.
00:59:23.900 It's not right.
00:59:25.180 Yeah.
00:59:25.760 Yeah.
00:59:26.020 I mean, he did have the butter that didn't.
00:59:27.840 It wasn't butter, but it tasted like butter.
00:59:29.640 He might be the devil himself.
00:59:30.960 Anyway, she's writing some more romance novels, and I'm not sure what she's writing,
00:59:36.980 but I just have a couple of things, you know, for her.
00:59:40.360 Maybe some titles that could, you know, just help her out.
00:59:42.880 Oh, okay, good.
00:59:43.820 Some helpful hints for him, for her.
00:59:45.860 How about Pride and Racial Prejudice?
00:59:49.540 Good.
00:59:50.580 Okay.
00:59:51.200 Not bad.
00:59:51.720 When Harry Met White Privilege.
00:59:54.300 Okay.
00:59:54.920 To All the Cops I've Loathed Before.
00:59:58.980 Or How Stella Got Her Vote Suppressed is another one that I think just, I mean, those are just
01:00:05.120 free.
01:00:05.600 You could just work on those, you know, but if you really want to make it steamy, you
01:00:11.400 know, maybe Crazy Rich Caucasians and, oh, no, because you'd have to have good looking
01:00:17.760 Caucasians in that.
01:00:20.680 And I don't think that, well, but you would provide work for Caucasian actors because,
01:00:27.660 you know, you couldn't have those played by non-Caucasians.
01:00:32.580 So that's a really good thing.
01:00:34.620 Really good thing.
01:00:35.560 Okay.
01:00:35.800 Let me go into some news on Rudy Giuliani next.
01:00:40.940 Next, we have John Solomon, formerly of the Wall Street Journal, now with justthenews.com.
01:00:46.840 Rudy Giuliani, his apartment was raided.
01:00:49.260 What was that about?
01:00:50.460 Next.
01:00:51.040 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:00:55.100 All right.
01:00:56.500 Let me help you out on your dog.
01:01:02.200 Andrea writes in.
01:01:04.100 She had experience with rough greens.
01:01:06.400 She said, our German shepherd has been suffering with skin allergies and infections.
01:01:10.380 She's been slowed way down because of it.
01:01:13.100 She has a bad hip.
01:01:14.120 I hate when that happens to these dogs.
01:01:16.380 We started using rough greens about two weeks ago.
01:01:19.100 The best word we can describe her now is happy.
01:01:23.040 She has more bounce in her step.
01:01:25.000 She seems to be walking better.
01:01:26.500 Her coat is shinier as well.
01:01:28.560 Every day, she looks forward to eating her food with rough greens on the top.
01:01:32.440 Thank you.
01:01:32.880 Thank you.
01:01:33.240 Thank you, rough greens.
01:01:34.540 Another satisfied regular customer.
01:01:36.700 Andrea, thank you so much for writing and telling me your experience.
01:01:40.020 You can now get a free bag of rough greens.
01:01:42.760 Just a little trial bag.
01:01:44.420 You just have to pay for the shipping, but they'll send it to you free.
01:01:47.800 And that way you can put it on your dog's food and see if they like it.
01:01:51.280 If they like it, then order a bag and you'll see month after month after month,
01:01:56.000 you will see changes in your dog.
01:01:58.100 Dramatic changes, I think, at least in Uno.
01:02:01.660 833-GLEN-33.
01:02:03.500 Order your bag now.
01:02:04.460 833-GLEN-33 or roughgreens.com slash back.

01:02:21.900 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:02:24.420 I'm sorry, my ears.
01:02:26.140 Can you please return my feed?
01:02:28.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:02:31.080 We're glad you're with us today.
01:02:33.140 John Solomon is with us.
01:02:35.940 There is a disturbing report happening now with Rudy Giuliani,
01:02:40.460 and John Solomon is part of it, but he is also former Wall Street Journal reporter,
01:02:48.700 CEO and editor-in-chief now of JustTheNews.com,
01:02:52.560 which is a news site that you should check every single day.
01:02:55.880 Really good journalism being done there.
01:02:57.980 Rudy Giuliani had his apartment raided yesterday,
01:03:01.180 and it's kind of disturbing what we're hearing is happening.
01:03:07.720 John, welcome.
01:03:09.360 Good to be with you, Glenn.
01:03:10.360 Thank you.
01:03:11.940 So tell us what happened yesterday and why.
01:03:15.120 As far as we can tell, and again, I'm a part of the news in this,
01:03:19.320 so it's an unusual position to be a reporter and also be part of the news.
01:03:22.180 The FBI on Wednesday raided Rudy Giuliani's apartment at about 6.30 in the morning.
01:03:28.740 They also raided the home, not really raided,
01:03:31.280 but they showed up at the home of a Joe DeGeneva and Victoria Tenzing,
01:03:36.660 who were personal lawyers for me on a book project,
01:03:39.540 and they secured communication devices that were requested under a grand jury subpoena
01:03:45.760 and a search warrant.
01:03:47.300 And, you know, this has been a long-running saga, right?
01:03:50.100 There is a theory that Adam Schiff has put out into the public
01:03:53.960 that somehow Rudy Giuliani and Victoria Tenzing and Joe DeGeneva
01:03:58.820 were working for foreign forces to remove the ambassador of,
01:04:04.460 the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, perhaps on behalf of Ukrainian officials.
01:04:08.800 I don't know the merits of the case, right?
01:04:11.160 I do know that I wrote the majority of the Joe Biden stories,
01:04:15.740 and this ambassador, Madam Ambassador Yovanovitch, Marie Yovanovitch,
01:04:21.440 was the woman that was at the helm at the embassy
01:04:25.860 when Hunter Biden was doing all of his shenanigans with Burisma.
01:04:29.300 And I wrote in the period of March until May the main stories that brought to light
01:04:34.880 or reinvigorated the Hunter Biden, Burisma, Ukraine, China money train.
01:04:40.380 And so my name shows up in these search warrants in Sabine, as I'm told.
01:04:46.140 And, again, I worked as a reporter.
01:04:48.620 I talked to many people.
01:04:50.120 Yes, Joe and Victoria were my lawyers who often did pre-libel work
01:04:54.100 when I would submit a story to the helm.
01:04:56.140 And Rudy Giuliani approached me about information.
01:04:58.480 I have said publicly I ended up not using what he gave me
01:05:01.020 because it didn't match my reporting.
01:05:03.180 And so I didn't use it, but he did offer me information.
01:05:05.340 I don't think I did anything but act like a reporter,
01:05:08.560 and many other reporters had the same contacts with the same people.
01:05:11.460 But for some reason, maybe because all of us were instrumental
01:05:14.940 in highlighting Hunter Biden's problems,
01:05:17.820 we now find ourselves entangled in this grand jury subpoena.
01:05:22.240 So, you know, some people say it's an enemy's list.
01:05:24.520 I don't know.
01:05:25.480 I hope to think not.
01:05:26.820 And I would like to give the benefit of the doubt to the U.S. Attorney's Office
01:05:29.620 that maybe they're looking at something,
01:05:31.460 and when they look at the facts, they'll come to the right decision.
01:05:34.300 But as a reporter, it's very chilling when your name gets leaked
01:05:37.760 as part of a grand jury subpoena.
01:05:39.940 Someone obviously wanted my name out there.
01:05:41.680 That's why they put it on the subpoena.
01:05:43.660 Adam Schiff wanted my name out there.
01:05:45.120 That's why he leaked my phone records.
01:05:47.140 And yet, in two and a half years, no one found anything wrong.
01:05:50.260 And everything that people said about the Burisma story at the time,
01:05:53.780 it's wrong.
01:05:54.600 It's Russian disinformation.
01:05:55.920 It's all been validated.
01:05:58.100 It's all true.
01:05:58.580 I think this will go.
01:05:59.340 And Ivanovich, the ambassador in Ukraine,
01:06:04.120 just from the reporting that we did,
01:06:09.180 she was not good.
01:06:13.280 She was not good.
01:06:14.800 And it would be great if she were gone,
01:06:18.020 not on behalf of the Ukrainian government,
01:06:21.480 but just on behalf of the United States and its government and people.
01:06:26.360 It was not a good situation.
01:06:28.900 What do we know about her that we didn't know during impeachment?
01:06:31.660 She was the darling of the impeachment testimony, right?
01:06:34.600 She testified during impeachment that she really didn't know anything
01:06:38.600 about Hunter Biden's Burisma thing,
01:06:40.700 except what she was briefed on before she became the ambassador
01:06:43.900 and what she read in the newspaper.
01:06:45.680 I sued and we turned up all of these documents.
01:06:49.020 She met with Burisma's lawyers.
01:06:51.200 She received a long briefing from Burisma's lawyers.
01:06:53.740 George Kent, the guy with the bow tie that made himself famous in the impeachment,
01:06:57.700 he told her a bribe had been paid by Burisma,
01:07:01.240 why Hunter Biden was on the board,
01:07:02.740 and she reported it to her boss, Victoria Nuland.
01:07:06.000 None of that was in her testimony.
01:07:07.680 A lot of people think she was at least deceptive by omission,
01:07:11.820 if not outright dishonest.
01:07:14.120 I know, because of the good work of Judicial Watch,
01:07:16.380 that she ordered myself and Sean Hannity and many other famous people
01:07:20.760 to have our social media illegally monitored by federal agents and federal employees.
01:07:27.500 The State Department cannot target Americans and use its intelligence resources.
01:07:31.660 We know she did that wrong.
01:07:33.400 We know she had a dysfunctional relationship with the Ukrainian prosecutor,
01:07:36.980 whose job it was to carry out her anti-corruption agenda.
01:07:42.880 And I think the body of history that we know about Marie Ivanovich today
01:07:47.300 versus what we knew about two years ago is very different.
01:07:50.720 And I think, you know, unfortunately,
01:07:52.660 most of the rest of the media got scared away from this story
01:07:55.060 when Adam Schiff and the fake whistleblower and others
01:07:57.640 started to make claims that, you know, aren't true.
01:08:00.060 They, you know, for a while,
01:08:01.440 the New York Times and ABC News were reporting what I was reporting,
01:08:04.840 and then they all ran for cover.
01:08:06.340 If this happened 20 years ago, John, to a reporter,
01:08:12.380 wouldn't all the reporters, everybody in the media be rallying around you?
01:08:17.200 They sure would.
01:08:18.220 In fact, ironically, Glenn, 20 years ago this month,
01:08:21.200 it did happen to this reporter.
01:08:23.560 I don't think, I don't know if you remember this,
01:08:25.200 but just before 9-11, when I was an Associated Press reporter,
01:08:28.340 the Bush administration, actually Robert Mueller,
01:08:30.880 we've heard a lot about him over the years,
01:08:32.360 he authorized a subpoena from my phone records
01:08:34.740 trying to find out my sources on something.
01:08:36.860 And then a few months later, without a warrant,
01:08:39.160 they intercepted my mail at the border.
01:08:41.300 They had to admit that that was an unlawful seizure.
01:08:44.440 And the media rallied around me.
01:08:46.160 Why?
01:08:46.420 Because it was George Bush's Justice Department going after me.
01:08:49.040 But when it's the Biden Justice Department,
01:08:50.900 I haven't gotten a single call of support from a single journalist.
01:08:54.460 And all those reporters who were looking at Biden,
01:08:57.420 you know, who dropped off it,
01:08:58.480 but know there's a real story there,
01:09:00.280 they've just gone silent.
01:09:01.380 Because you know what?
01:09:02.620 If they probably saw what happened to me,
01:09:04.520 I got, you know, I have an impeccable reputation of journalism.
01:09:07.520 I worked very carefully to be fair to people my whole life,
01:09:11.180 regardless of political.
01:09:12.700 They destroyed my reputation.
01:09:14.380 They called me a Russian disinformation artist.
01:09:17.540 No one wants to go through that.
01:09:18.840 And then I think they scared the rest of the media off.
01:09:21.660 And silence will be the greatest sin of omission
01:09:23.800 that the industry pays on this particular issue.
01:09:26.760 They were silent when Adam Schiff took my phone records.
01:09:29.720 No one was outraged then,
01:09:30.840 except for the Wall Street Journal op-ed pages.
01:09:34.180 Please count this as a genuine call of support,
01:09:38.900 but not from anybody with any kind of journalistic credibility.
01:09:42.220 But we're behind you, John.
01:09:43.680 Thank you.
01:09:45.000 It means a lot.
01:09:45.840 It is.
01:09:46.620 Yeah, it is really bad.
01:09:48.320 Now, tell me, because Rudy Giuliani,
01:09:51.840 his son came out and said,
01:09:54.300 they left all of the information about Hunter Biden's laptop.
01:09:59.260 Is that real?
01:10:01.920 Or is, was that just a, you know?
01:10:05.080 Yeah.
01:10:05.680 Rudy Giuliani says he offered the laptop
01:10:07.680 because it met the description of the electronic devices
01:10:10.720 that should be seized.
01:10:11.640 And the agents told him they didn't want it.
01:10:14.140 That's what he said on Tucker Carlson last night.
01:10:16.460 Now, there could be a, I'll offer,
01:10:18.620 because I always try to be fair and down the middle on these things.
01:10:20.740 Yep, yep.
01:10:20.980 They already have the Hunter Biden laptop.
01:10:22.580 So having another copy of it might not be as important to the FBI.
01:10:26.180 They've had it.
01:10:26.680 We know that.
01:10:27.320 So maybe it's not a big deal.
01:10:28.880 Here's something that I think is more shocking
01:10:30.620 that Rudy Giuliani said that I don't think people picked up on.
01:10:33.660 I've done the reporting this morning,
01:10:35.100 and I have confirmed this.
01:10:37.060 Rudy intimated, and I have confirmed affirmatively,
01:10:40.260 that in November of 19,
01:10:43.000 the Trump Justice Department,
01:10:44.600 under the direction of Bill Barr,
01:10:46.980 authorized the secret,
01:10:50.700 it's called clandestine,
01:10:52.200 seizure of Rudy Giuliani's law records,
01:10:57.020 as well as Victoria Tenzing's law records.
01:11:00.740 Why is that so significant?
01:11:02.200 It's very rare to do clandestine seizures of data.
01:11:06.560 But in the case of Rudy Giuliani,
01:11:09.440 I believe it was their cloud.
01:11:10.880 It's all of his records in the cloud from his email.
01:11:13.820 Wait, wait, wait.
01:11:15.280 So when you say law records,
01:11:17.820 could that include attorney-client privileged stuff?
01:11:21.340 It absolutely did,
01:11:22.480 because the government had to set up a team
01:11:24.580 and self-determine,
01:11:26.020 because they weren't asking Rudy,
01:11:27.520 what records were privileged and what weren't.
01:11:31.200 Oh my gosh.
01:11:33.400 Yes, that's how far our surveillance state has gone.
01:11:36.760 And let's think about its significance from two things.
01:11:39.160 They've had all this stuff for two years.
01:11:40.520 They never brought charges.
01:11:42.080 They had access to everything.
01:11:43.660 And now they're going to raid his home
01:11:44.720 and get the same stuff a second time.
01:11:46.560 But here's a more important point.
01:11:49.300 At that very moment in November of 2019,
01:11:52.440 when those clandestine or covert seizures were occurring,
01:11:58.320 he was advising the president's impeachment strategy
01:12:01.100 as Adam Schiff was conducting the impeachment trial.
01:12:04.360 Oh my God.
01:12:04.760 Victoria Nuland,
01:12:06.320 the U.S. attorney's office
01:12:08.240 in the Southern District of New York
01:12:10.300 may very well have had access
01:12:12.220 to some of Rudy Giuliani's strategy Ukraine.
01:12:15.760 And remember,
01:12:16.780 it was the Ukraine issue
01:12:18.320 that was at Rudy Giuliani's role
01:12:20.740 was the issue in the impeachment trial.
01:12:24.560 It's a very chilling thing.
01:12:26.380 Attorneys have privileges.
01:12:27.620 Journalists are supposed to have privileges.
01:12:29.560 It appears that the surveillance state of America,
01:12:32.360 whether it's Adam Schiff's surveillance state
01:12:34.340 with his subpoena for phone records
01:12:35.780 or the Justice Department,
01:12:38.260 doesn't seem to regard the privileges of attorneys
01:12:40.840 or the privileges of journalists
01:12:42.140 as robustly as they did 10 or 20 or 30 years ago.
01:12:45.480 That is bone-chilling, bone-chilling.
01:12:52.020 I saw yesterday that the Justice Department
01:12:55.880 just promoted the individual
01:12:59.320 that was instrumental in the FISA scandal.
01:13:06.000 And I believe she's now overseeing
01:13:09.340 the relationship between the people asking for warrants
01:13:13.560 and the FISA request.
01:13:15.940 What is happening there?
01:13:16.920 Nobody, not only are they not getting punished,
01:13:19.580 they're getting rewarded.
01:13:21.700 It's been the dynamic all through the Russia scandal, right?
01:13:28.240 And Russia and Ukraine are inextricably intertwined.
01:13:31.200 People don't realize that the Russia story
01:13:33.800 in many respects was designed
01:13:35.620 to throw a light on Donald Trump,
01:13:38.240 a diversionary tactic,
01:13:39.240 so people wouldn't look at what Hillary Clinton,
01:13:41.600 Joe Biden, and others were doing in Russia and Ukraine
01:13:43.780 because they all had relationships in both countries.
01:13:45.640 It was a piggy bank for Democrats
01:13:47.440 and they threw a diversionary tactic
01:13:50.740 by accusing Trump of doing something he never did.
01:13:53.300 So Ukraine and Russia are going to forever be intertwined.
01:13:56.920 That said, you look,
01:13:59.300 Peter Strzok gets fired for misconduct
01:14:02.460 and he lands on all of these prestigious jobs.
01:14:04.900 Hunter Biden admits he does all these things wrong.
01:14:07.260 He's giving lectures on the media now
01:14:09.080 at a prestigious university.
01:14:10.360 Tulane.
01:14:14.100 Yeah, Tulane, just in the last few days.
01:14:16.500 The former deputy FBI director, McCabe, gets fired.
01:14:19.520 He's able to raise zillions of dollars on GoFundMe.
01:14:23.140 There's no consequences for bad conduct,
01:14:25.800 at least on the left, you know?
01:14:27.560 And then there seems to be extraordinary
01:14:30.020 and maybe over-the-top penalties
01:14:32.760 for people on the right.
01:14:33.920 You take a look at Mike Flynn and Andy McCabe.
01:14:35.760 They did the same thing.
01:14:36.960 If you believe the FBI, they lied to the FBI.
01:14:39.640 One goes through millions of dollars of law bills
01:14:42.280 and a prosecution before he gets pardoned.
01:14:45.080 The other doesn't get even charged
01:14:47.580 and under a Trump Justice Department.
01:14:50.600 So you just have to ask yourself
01:14:52.740 whether this picture doesn't really affirm
01:14:55.560 what Republicans have been saying.
01:14:57.180 There's a two-tier justice system.
01:15:00.220 John, please reach out if you need anything,

01:16:42.380 So, some parents here in Texas, in the number one school district,
01:16:48.640 they had said that it was systematic racism,
01:16:53.060 it was a horrible racist community, yada, yada, yada.
01:16:57.940 The Carroll School District gets together and they said,
01:17:01.440 hey, we're going to have a meeting on this and a training for all of the teachers.
01:17:10.080 Oh, my gosh.
01:17:11.120 The training was a nightmare.
01:17:15.060 If you treat parents, students, and colleagues equally,
01:17:19.420 regardless of their skin color or ethnicity,
01:17:22.440 you are culturally blind and ignoring what's happening in our country.
01:17:28.500 That's, excuse me, what it means to be white for you.
01:17:34.160 They were encouraged to think of themselves in terms of race,
01:17:38.240 white fragility, yada, yada, yada.
01:17:42.940 It also warns, I love this, it warns against stereotyping,
01:17:47.380 which happens when you generalize about a person while ignoring the presence of individual differences.
01:17:51.520 Wait a minute, wait a minute, what do you say, white fragility?
01:17:56.380 I mean, they had to look through all of their teaching through the lens of equity.
01:18:03.540 They had videos that the teachers had to watch from California on racism.
01:18:12.000 They claimed black and brown students needed extra resources because they have to work extra hard
01:18:17.060 and do double the work just to succeed.
01:18:19.040 They also had an equity rubric, things teachers should change about their professional practices.
01:18:26.780 You know, they need to make sure that the teachers are aware of their biases and privileges
01:18:30.920 so they can prioritize equity.
01:18:34.420 Well, the parents said, enough, enough, enough, enough.
01:18:38.200 One of the parents that was there is going to join us next.
01:18:43.800 This school, the parents are pushing back hard and winning.
01:18:50.500 And we're going to talk to one of those parents, an amazing guy, next.
01:18:57.100 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:59.300 Two school board trustees have been indicted on charges of violating Texas Open Meetings Act.
01:19:12.520 They were at the center of a fight over diversity and inclusion in the district.
01:19:17.640 This is a school district that is probably one of the best school systems in the nation.
01:19:24.640 It's definitely number one in Texas.
01:19:27.040 It is, it's a phenomenal school district and a phenomenal community.
01:19:33.400 Its rate of racial, reports of racial attacks is 0.3.
01:19:41.160 0.3.
01:19:43.360 The scores, the test scores between white and black are no different in this school district.
01:19:49.580 They're doing things right.
01:19:50.840 Well, there's been charges of racism and so critical race theory was, uh, was brought in.
01:19:57.760 The parents went crazy.
01:20:01.440 We're going to talk to one of the guys who is at the, uh, eye of the storm in 60 seconds.
01:20:07.460 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:20:13.820 It's just incredible what's going on.
01:20:15.340 This is a good news story, by the way.
01:20:16.980 Let me tell you about Rectech.
01:20:18.420 Uh, I don't, you know, I want my grill, uh, to work.
01:20:22.960 I would love a grill that would help me not burn everything I put on it.
01:20:26.880 Like it's, I mean, if you're coming over to my house and we're having steak, it's going
01:20:31.280 to, you're going to go and you'll look at the steaks.
01:20:32.900 You'll be like, wow, that's great.
01:20:34.300 I'm like, yeah, I know.
01:20:35.120 It's our own grass fed cow, blah, blah, blah.
01:20:37.980 And then when it comes off the grill, uh, it's horribly burned.
01:20:41.640 Uh, and you're like, well, I think it's raw in the middle.
01:20:45.160 It might even be a little cold in the middle.
01:20:47.000 So it'll all balance out.
01:20:48.860 Just put the flames out.
01:20:49.920 I like a grill to, uh, really take that problem away.
01:20:55.140 These grills, Rectechs, were, were designed by people who go to barbecue competitions,
01:21:02.580 smoke competitions.
01:21:03.960 This, this grill can grill.
01:21:06.340 It can smoke.
01:21:07.320 Uh, it can even bake.
01:21:08.900 It's called a Rectech and you will marvel at the high tech and how well it is built.
01:21:15.600 Honestly, it's built like a 56 Buick.
01:21:18.480 It is just heavy, heavy steel.
01:21:20.900 It's, it's made designed here in America.
01:21:23.260 It's, it's just great.
01:21:25.500 Smart technology.
01:21:26.540 Won't find one better, especially for the price.
01:21:28.840 Look them up.
01:21:29.640 A B compare Rectech, R E C T E Q.com.
01:21:34.780 Rectech, R E C T E Q.com.
01:21:45.600 Juan Salivar is, uh, with us.
01:21:51.100 He's a retired Colonel, the United States army.
01:21:54.260 Uh, and, uh, he is one of the people in South Lake who has been very outspoken about what
01:22:00.120 was going on with critical race theory and is changing for the better.
01:22:05.260 What was happening in the school district.
01:22:07.680 He's going to walk us through what happened, why he and others got involved and, uh, and
01:22:13.440 maybe even some of the details on the arrests that are happening here.
01:22:16.540 Juan, welcome to the program, sir.
01:22:17.840 How are you?
01:22:19.200 Hi, Mr.
01:22:19.940 Beck.
01:22:20.160 Thank you for having me.
01:22:20.960 It's an honor to be here.
01:22:22.460 Thank you.
01:22:23.060 It's an honor to talk to you.
01:22:24.060 I know your, I know your service record and, uh, it's quite impressive.
01:22:27.860 So thank you.
01:22:29.360 So, um, Juan, tell me how this happened, what you first heard, how you got involved and what
01:22:35.880 people have been doing.
01:22:38.280 Yeah, sure.
01:22:39.140 There's, there's a lot of people in this community that were involved before I was, I wasn't really
01:22:43.480 aware of what was going on until mid summer of 2020, right in the middle of the pandemic.
01:22:49.280 When I started to hear inklings of this program called the cultural competence action plan,
01:22:54.300 CCAP for short.
01:22:55.300 So it was released in draft form in late summer.
01:22:59.400 And I went through it with a fine tooth comb because I was concerned about what it was going
01:23:02.980 to do.
01:23:03.980 And I saw the seeds of critical race theory sprinkled throughout with terms like equity,
01:23:10.920 135 times, diversity, 104 times, inclusion, 108 times, none of which were ever defined.
01:23:16.940 In fact, the term cultural competence was never defined.
01:23:19.840 What was defined in there was the term microaggressions, which put an emphasis on the
01:23:25.300 on that could be verbal or nonverbal, intentional or unintentional, very much in the mind of the
01:23:31.440 beholder, if you will, targeting persons that are marginalized or underrepresented groups,
01:23:39.000 never defining that either.
01:23:40.440 And so it was clear.
01:23:42.560 Yeah, I read some of it.
01:23:44.000 It is so it is so well written that it could include everything.
01:23:47.600 I mean, I was bowled over by the line making eye contact or not making eye contact could
01:23:55.360 be racist.
01:23:56.460 It's like, so you pretty much have everything covered here.
01:24:00.160 Pretty much.
01:24:02.420 And that was a big problem for me.
01:24:05.160 My child's young, but I don't want her to grow up in a system where they're constantly
01:24:10.360 infiltrating the curriculum with this nonsense.
01:24:13.720 And it's really antithetical to the idea of human liberty and freedom and human flourishing,
01:24:19.260 which is what education is supposed to be about.
01:24:21.240 So South Southlake, I don't know why you moved to Southlake, but if you have kids, probably
01:24:28.780 a good deal had to do with the school district.
01:24:31.900 It is a great town.
01:24:34.840 It's heavily influenced in a positive way by by the people at Gateway Church.
01:24:42.120 So it's just a good, decent town.
01:24:45.400 The the the school is one of the best in the country, the best in in Texas, and all of
01:24:53.980 a sudden they come in and they start making claims that Southlake is a as deep seated racism
01:25:00.060 in its roots and the school is racist.
01:25:03.800 And what they are teaching the teachers and having the teachers spew is is poison, poison
01:25:11.820 on for Southlake and for the kids.
01:25:15.400 Yes, sir.
01:25:17.100 Absolutely poison.
01:25:18.920 I will say that the vast majority of our teachers and principals are outstanding.
01:25:23.480 They're outstanding, not just educators, but human beings.
01:25:26.740 So I don't want to blame them.
01:25:28.240 They don't control the curriculum as it's written.
01:25:31.960 But I see this moving in and kind of getting its the camel getting its nose under the tent.
01:25:36.660 And I thought, you know what?
01:25:37.600 I need to stand against this.
01:25:39.080 It's the right thing to do.
01:25:40.240 We don't need to divide our kids into oppressors and oppressed based on their immutable physical
01:25:45.920 characteristics, the way God made them.
01:25:48.860 OK, so what happened?
01:25:51.200 You you everybody goes to the school board and start to speak up against it.
01:25:57.200 And what happens?
01:25:58.360 Well, it's what you would expect to happen from the left.
01:26:02.080 So as soon as people started to speak up, the proponents of CCAP immediately came back
01:26:08.180 and accused our entire side of being racist.
01:26:11.080 And this is typical for the progressive, neo-Marxist, postmodern thought, wherein they don't consider
01:26:20.140 that there's any possible factors other than racism for disagreement.
01:26:25.520 Well, remember, I just want to remind everybody that that one is a guy that makes eye contact
01:26:34.340 and sometimes doesn't make eye contact.
01:26:36.440 So, you know, right there how racist he is.
01:26:40.800 So they they started throwing everybody under the under the bus.
01:26:45.720 And then what?
01:26:48.100 Well, so then we started to do a lot of open records requests through the an organization
01:26:53.700 called Southlake Families Pack, which is an association of like minded individuals that
01:26:58.880 want to make sure that we maintain parental authority in our schools and on our school board.
01:27:04.080 Um, as as the government is supposed to be set up authority delegated from the people
01:27:10.060 to government at all echelons.
01:27:12.140 And what we found, one of the troubling things we found was that the administration had applied
01:27:18.200 for a VOCA grant.
01:27:19.560 This is Victims of Crime Act.
01:27:21.440 And what they were trying to do is criminalize the microaggressions, which we previously said
01:27:27.180 could be anything in order to get money.
01:27:29.800 Now, you know, Mr. Beck, this is one of the most affluent communities in all of Texas.
01:27:36.000 We have a tradition of excellence in our school and in terms of academics, sports, every area
01:27:41.340 you can think of.
01:27:42.300 And we don't have any real discernible disparate impact among the demographic groups.
01:27:47.740 And yet here we are with some folks thinking it would be a good idea to take money meant for
01:27:52.420 victims of actual crime, funnel it into this society for the purpose of criminalizing microaggressions.
01:28:00.080 That's obscene.
01:28:01.560 Obscene.
01:28:02.480 It is.
01:28:02.900 So what happened with the Carroll School trustees that have been now indicted of violating
01:28:11.260 the Open Meetings Act?
01:28:13.960 Yes, sir.
01:28:14.740 So there were two trustees that were accused of violating the Texas Open Meetings Act, which
01:28:19.520 basically says you can't have a walking quorum.
01:28:21.620 You can't have meetings in secret, deliberations in secret.
01:28:25.460 And we believe they were deliberating to implement CCAP in secret.
01:28:30.980 And an investigation started in the wake of a lawsuit that was filed by one of the parents.
01:28:36.660 And this particular parent has gotten a lot of flack from the left about this lawsuit.
01:28:40.780 How dare you sue our schools?
01:28:42.100 But the truth of the matter is the school system deserved to be sued.
01:28:47.040 And so the authorities started to investigate on a criminal basis and, you know, had enough
01:28:53.940 evidence to make two arrests.
01:28:55.800 We had two school board members that were arrested, I think, at their homes.
01:29:00.120 They paid $500 bond and were released.
01:29:01.980 And within 48 hours, were back sitting in their seats at the next school board meeting.
01:29:07.200 Oh, my gosh.
01:29:09.760 Oh, my gosh.
01:29:11.680 So what's next?
01:29:13.860 How far on the fight on this are you?
01:29:19.240 And what's next?
01:29:20.680 We think, as a group, we think we've pretty well defeated the imposition of the CCAP.
01:29:28.760 There are some people that still want to push its implementation.
01:29:32.960 What we're starting to see now is a revision of their words.
01:29:39.060 They're not talking CCAP anymore.
01:29:40.540 Now they're talking diversity, equity, and inclusion.
01:29:44.400 Or, as I like to say, the diversity, inclusion, and equity religion, the DI religion.
01:29:47.920 And they've taken to dropping the word equity suddenly because we have an election going
01:29:54.120 on right now.
01:29:55.380 And the final day of voting is May 1st for local Southlake City Council mayor and school
01:30:03.060 board positions.
01:30:04.900 And so we're keeping an eye on that.
01:30:07.260 The one thing I would say is, and I think this is true across the board around the country,
01:30:12.320 the mainstream media has really become the center of gravity for the left's movement.
01:30:20.000 They use them to push their false narratives and prevent any kind of counter-messaging.
01:30:25.280 They suppress us with that.
01:30:27.020 So I want to thank you specifically for having me on to talk about this because folks like
01:30:31.860 you, Fox, the Federalists, are able to amplify our voice and get our ideas out there.
01:30:37.000 We are not scared of having a debate, having an open battle of ideas, because we know our
01:30:42.880 ideas are better.
01:30:44.540 But the left always wants to suppress our ideas because they want control.
01:30:47.980 They don't care about a battle of ideas, which is precisely the opposite of what we should
01:30:52.480 be teaching our children in our schools.
01:30:55.480 One, I wanted to have you on for a couple of reasons.
01:30:58.480 One, I've seen you speak, and you were amazing.
01:31:03.000 Two, you guys are making a real difference.
01:31:09.220 I mean, you could change the makeup of the school board in this election and change the
01:31:14.760 whole route that Southlake was taking in the school district if you remain vigilant on it,
01:31:22.000 because they will just come back.
01:31:23.260 They'll morph and they'll come back.
01:31:25.780 But the other is, there are so many people that think that's not happening in my community.
01:31:31.380 Southlake, the school system, is fantastic.
01:31:36.040 There is, it is not a racist community.
01:31:39.540 It's, they have no racial problems to speak of in the, in the school district.
01:31:46.000 And it's riddled with this critical race theory now.
01:31:50.080 And it just came in overnight.
01:31:52.020 And I wanted people to understand this is happening in your community as well.
01:31:56.560 Yes, sir.
01:31:59.400 Absolutely.
01:32:00.120 And I think it's important for people to realize how the left operates.
01:32:04.760 So we see this in the younger grades.
01:32:07.500 My daughter's in K through four with something called social and emotional learning.
01:32:12.320 And, you know, you can look that up on the internet and you'll see that it's one of the
01:32:15.840 latest fads to come out in education circles.
01:32:19.120 But the truth is what it does is it prioritizes and emphasizes the primacy of emotion over
01:32:25.340 thought.
01:32:26.220 And so it serves as a primer for the tactics of the left to impose these kind of critical
01:32:32.320 race theory ideas in the later school years.
01:32:36.220 And so we have from the left, the main argument is what about these 300 plus, depending on who
01:32:41.940 you talk to, it's between 300 and 400 plus testimonies of people who were quote unquote
01:32:47.700 abused in Carol ISD.
01:32:50.740 But you'll note that none of them have ever been investigated.
01:32:54.120 There's no real evidence.
01:32:55.720 I'm not saying that discrimination doesn't happen at all.
01:32:59.380 I've been subjected to it over the course of my life.
01:33:02.220 But I am saying that if it's really that big of a problem, every single instance should
01:33:07.300 be investigated, and just as it's not my purview to deny someone's quote unquote lived experience,
01:33:15.160 neither is it my responsibility to affirm it without evidence.
01:33:19.040 Otherwise, you find yourself in a situation like we saw with the Kavanaugh hearings.
01:33:22.660 Believe all, insert demographic group.
01:33:25.880 Women, people of color, individuals that have same-sex attraction, whatever you want to put
01:33:32.920 in there, fill in the blank.
01:33:34.080 That is a recipe for breaking our country apart, and we have to stand against that.
01:33:41.280 Juan, you just retired from your military service, a very honorable one.
01:33:47.360 And it looks like you're just not really retiring.
01:33:51.340 You're still doing the same thing.
01:33:54.180 Well, sir, I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies,
01:33:59.720 foreign and domestic, on the plane of West Point when I was 18 years old.
01:34:04.080 And that didn't go away when I retired.
01:34:06.820 And I, you know, unlike some people, I took it upon myself to say, well, you know, if I'm
01:34:11.360 going to support and defend the Constitution, I should darn well know what's in it.
01:34:15.220 And what you find is, and I don't want to go too far afield here, but what you find is,
01:34:19.680 if you really look at it, what's in the Constitution is the codification of our natural rights.
01:34:24.800 These are the Enlightenment principles that our founders laid down on paper and said, we
01:34:30.520 have inherent rights that were given to us in a state of nature by God that are discernible
01:34:35.760 by reason.
01:34:36.800 And we don't want to have a society where we solve our problems with violence.
01:34:40.480 We want to have a society where we solve our problems with debate.
01:34:44.440 Violence is the last, least preferable option.
01:34:47.280 But we only go to that when we have to.
01:34:50.480 And so that's where we are right now.
01:34:52.440 It's time for parents everywhere to stand up against this, fight for what they know is
01:34:57.020 right, before it's too late.
01:35:01.180 Juan, thank you so much.
01:35:02.680 I do want to, I don't mean to cheapen this whole thing, but you commanded the units in
01:35:07.300 the First Army at Fort Knox.
01:35:08.600 Did you ever see the gold?
01:35:09.980 Did they let you go in?
01:35:10.940 No, sir, I saw the building where the gold was housed.
01:35:15.900 The gold was housed.
01:35:16.460 You never went in.
01:35:17.440 All right.
01:35:18.400 All right.
01:35:19.820 Thank you so much.
01:35:21.020 And, you know, I live in one of the towns that adjoin Southlake, and you have my support
01:35:28.120 in Southlake.
01:35:29.000 Anything that I can do, and I hope someday that we'll get a chance to meet each other.
01:35:32.760 Thank you so much, Juan.
01:35:34.540 Yes, sir.
01:35:34.980 If I could just say one last thing.
01:35:37.220 Parents interested in fighting back, go take a look.

01:36:47.080 10-Second Station ID.
01:37:02.360 You know, it's amazing what is happening, and we've always known this.
01:37:06.640 We knew this about the Republicans first.
01:37:08.980 The Republicans, generally speaking, act as though they hate the people who vote for them.
01:37:15.560 And I think some of them do.
01:37:17.080 I think the elites that have been in Congress for a long time just don't like the little
01:37:21.700 people out there.
01:37:22.640 They're just so dumb and close-minded.
01:37:26.540 And they hold us in contempt.
01:37:30.040 But you're now seeing this at the local level.
01:37:35.700 And, you know, power is intoxicating.
01:37:39.160 And I don't know if you feel this way, but power at the upper levels usually is just absolutely
01:37:47.460 corrupting.
01:37:48.240 Very few people leave better people than they were before they got into politics, especially
01:37:55.240 at the upper level.
01:37:56.120 But I also think at the very local level as well.
01:37:59.300 Some of these people, especially like zoning committees and everything else, some of these
01:38:05.720 people, not all of them, but some of them get on and they just get drunk with their own
01:38:11.240 power.
01:38:12.220 And it's terrifying when you see it at a local level because you're like, who the hell do
01:38:17.220 you think you are?
01:38:19.540 I mean, it's remarkable.
01:38:23.300 And you're seeing this now in counties.
01:38:25.760 I don't know if you saw this in Montgomery County, the health department's contempt for
01:38:32.460 non-public schools.
01:38:34.500 They were writing emails back and forth.
01:38:39.620 And because the request for public records, the public health department was just like,
01:38:50.040 oh, these private schools, they're just horrible with what they're doing.
01:38:56.420 And the Catholics, yada, yada, yada.
01:38:59.340 I mean, it's beyond opinion and into absolute contempt.
01:39:09.800 And it's getting dangerous because more and more of these people are getting absolute control.
01:39:16.180 We've been giving it to them for a long time and now they're taking whatever remains and
01:39:22.280 your community and your state is really all you have.
01:39:27.260 I mean, you have your family, then you have your community and county and then state, and
01:39:32.340 you've got to shore that up.
01:39:34.500 And honestly, if you're living in a place where you are alone, I would suggest you move to some
01:39:41.560 place where you're surrounded by like-minded people, if you can, because we see the world
01:39:47.980 in completely different ways now, two completely different ways.
01:39:53.480 And it's going to be those who survive are going to be those who are surrounded by like-minded
01:39:59.660 people that will help.
01:40:01.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:40:03.640 So I don't know what's worth more to you, you know, your money or your identity.
01:40:12.460 But I'll tell you, as somebody who has lost all their money and their good name and trust
01:40:19.060 of people because of my alcoholism, identity and your good name, that's really all you own.
01:40:26.680 And it's the most important thing you have.
01:40:29.100 And that's what's being taken, not just your money, but your identity.
01:40:32.220 Identity theft is real.
01:40:34.660 It's happening.
01:40:35.700 Nobody can stop all of it.
01:40:37.680 But one country, one company is the company that really kind of started this whole category
01:40:44.380 of business, and that is protecting your identity.
01:40:47.880 And it's LifeLock.
01:40:49.000 They've been in business forever.
01:40:50.480 They have a team that they know nobody can stop everything.
01:40:53.640 So they have a team that is working there that if your identity does happen to be stolen,
01:40:59.260 that team comes in and they work with you to clean all of it up.
01:41:03.940 And that's something that you just, most people just don't even know where to start.

01:41:26.580 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:41:34.820 Welcome to it.
01:41:35.900 We have the Friday exclusive tonight at 5 p.m. for Blaze subscribers only.
01:41:41.880 5 p.m. only on BlazeTV.com.
01:41:45.360 You'll find my Friday exclusive to be fascinating, I think.
01:41:49.580 Today, we are talking to a woman who lived through Mao and the Cultural Revolution,
01:41:57.460 and there were either red families or black families.
01:42:01.500 Red was with Mao, and black was against Mao.
01:42:05.540 And if you were a black family, then you could be beaten or killed by a red family,
01:42:11.140 your neighbor, for any reason at any time.
01:42:14.400 Well, this family went through beatings and indoctrination, and she lived to tell about it,
01:42:20.080 and she's going to give quite a warning to Americans.
01:42:22.880 She sees some trends that maybe might be a little troubling.
01:42:27.200 So, we'll talk to her on the Friday exclusive.
01:42:31.580 Also, on the podcast is Bob Woodson.
01:42:36.140 He's one of my favorite people, a new friend of mine that has been on the show before.
01:42:42.680 He is doing the 1776unites.com project.
01:42:47.320 This is to fight critical race theory, and it is to fight all of the garbage that 1619 is doing.
01:42:54.960 And it is fantastic curriculum.
01:42:57.180 It is free.
01:42:58.380 All you have to do is go to 1776unites.com, download the curriculum.
01:43:06.620 It is something your school could use.
01:43:08.320 I'm going to use it with my family.
01:43:09.640 I mean, I learned a lot in this.
01:43:11.480 And David Barton and I have done a lot of work on history of the black history of America.
01:43:19.420 I learned a lot from this.
01:43:21.380 You'll love this curriculum.
01:43:23.700 1776unites.com, and don't miss the podcast.
01:43:28.320 You can get it now on Blaze TV, or you can get it wherever you get your podcast tomorrow.
01:43:34.560 It will be available everywhere.
01:43:36.520 One of the spookiest stories I have read in a lot.
01:43:40.980 Is it the chicken shortage?
01:43:42.440 Is that the spookiest story you've read in a long time?
01:43:44.800 The chicken shortage.
01:43:45.800 Is that what you're talking about?
01:43:47.240 Chicken shortage?
01:43:48.200 No, I'm not up on the chicken shortage.
01:43:49.900 Well, in addition to the lumber, the paper products, the oxygen, microchips, pet food, new car shortage,
01:43:56.540 we're also now in a critical shortage of chicken.
01:44:00.840 Huh.
01:44:01.380 Yeah.
01:44:02.000 Yeah.
01:44:02.300 Critical shortage of chicken.
01:44:03.820 Yes.
01:44:04.480 This is very frightening.
01:44:05.500 There's a massive chicken wing shortage that's brewing, but it's actually worse than that
01:44:11.640 because it's not just the chicken wings, but chicken in general that's going to be in really
01:44:17.640 short supply.
01:44:19.020 Is that your commentary, or is that what the story says?
01:44:22.100 No, the story actually says chicken in general is going to be.
01:44:27.140 No, I don't think there could be a chicken wing shortage without a chicken shortage.
01:44:33.240 You know, if we have chickens, there's probably enough chicken wings to go around.
01:44:38.140 Okay.
01:44:38.480 It's not like we're growing chicken wings in a Petri dish.
01:44:41.160 When you put it like that, it does make the general chicken shortage sound kind of stupid.
01:44:45.520 It does.
01:44:47.000 It does.
01:44:47.500 Yeah, it does.
01:44:47.740 But I'm telling you, this stuff is, this is what I warned you about with COVID.
01:44:53.220 I said, don't worry about COVID.
01:44:56.800 We'll deal with it.
01:44:58.100 We'll have it.
01:44:58.840 It's not going to be as deadly as everybody says.
01:45:01.100 This was back in January of, what, 2019 or 2020.
01:45:05.660 And I said, the thing you have to worry about is what it's going to do to the economy.
01:45:11.580 And we are seeing it right now.
01:45:14.260 You're going to have massive, massive inflation and a shortage of things.
01:45:22.260 I mean, I'm trying to get some concrete and I can't get concrete.
01:45:27.080 I mean, it's crazy what is happening.
01:45:31.640 I mean, I feel like, honestly, I feel like I live in the former Soviet Union where you call for concrete.
01:45:37.940 And they're like, you call Monday between 7 and 7.15.
01:45:42.100 You say, I want this much concrete.
01:45:45.080 You call it 7.16.
01:45:46.600 You don't get in.
01:45:47.460 Wait until next Monday.
01:45:49.140 I'm not making that up.
01:45:50.200 That's really what's happening.
01:45:52.080 Wow.
01:45:53.100 They're rationing concrete on a weekly basis now?
01:45:56.780 I guess.
01:45:57.640 Or control.
01:45:58.000 I don't know what they're doing.
01:45:59.380 But that's the system.
01:46:00.980 You call between 7 and 7.15 on Monday.
01:46:04.260 And you call Tuesday, I'm going to tell you the same thing.
01:46:07.520 Call next Monday.
01:46:08.700 You call me Sunday night, I'm going to say call between 7 and 7.15 Monday.
01:46:12.280 And if you miss it, you're out.
01:46:14.720 Wow.
01:46:15.120 And they won't guarantee.
01:46:15.860 You can't say, hey, well, can I get so much concrete this week?
01:46:20.220 And then next week and the week after, you can call next Monday.
01:46:26.200 And so you can't place a whole order.
01:46:29.020 In advance, you can't.
01:46:29.760 Which makes pouring concrete almost impossible because when you have concrete, you pour it
01:46:36.480 and you run out.
01:46:37.300 It won't bond with the new concrete.
01:46:41.100 So how is this going to work exactly?
01:46:44.500 It's crazy what's going on.
01:46:46.660 Let me give you a couple of stories here.
01:46:48.400 First of all, the U.S. is investigating possible mysterious directed energy attacks near the
01:46:55.020 White House.
01:46:55.680 Did you see this story?
01:46:57.080 Yeah.
01:46:57.720 Yeah.
01:46:58.400 Now, they say this is the Cuba effect.
01:47:01.600 We don't know who's doing it, China or Russia.
01:47:04.100 But a lot of our people down in Cuba have had real problems because they say they're being
01:47:11.580 bombarded with some sort of an energy ray.
01:47:15.080 Uh, and it can cause you, I think, to go deaf, dizziness, confusion.
01:47:21.740 I mean, it's, it's not good.
01:47:23.760 And now they just found out or no, they just released that while Trump was in office, somebody
01:47:29.640 was doing a test with this near the White House.
01:47:32.800 And we don't know who yet.
01:47:36.240 So we got that going for us.
01:47:37.680 Is that something we can't trace?
01:47:39.200 You can't trace an energy beam?
01:47:42.640 I don't know.
01:47:43.960 I know that we say we don't know who's behind it and we don't know what it even is at this
01:47:50.940 point.
01:47:52.000 That's kind of frightening.
01:47:52.940 I'm, I'm hoping they have the energy device that that's one of our enemies that has the
01:47:57.780 energy device that makes people throw up and get dizzy.
01:48:01.400 And we are the ones behind the UFOs.
01:48:04.540 That's what I'm hoping for.
01:48:06.780 By the way, the Navy is way below now the 355 ships that we are supposed to have.
01:48:16.020 They're mandated that we have 355 ships at all time.
01:48:19.040 We only have 296 ships, more being built.
01:48:24.040 Unfortunately, it doesn't, we won't reach the requirement until 2031 or 2033 of the mandated
01:48:32.120 ships.
01:48:33.100 We're building them now and we won't be able to catch up and be mandated for another 13
01:48:40.700 years.
01:48:41.460 That sounds like something America doesn't do in World War II.
01:48:45.520 Um, but one of the problems is, is that Biden came in and said no budget increases at all
01:48:51.420 for the Pentagon.
01:48:52.660 So the cost of living increase, we can't finish the ships.
01:48:56.260 They don't know where they're going to get the money.
01:48:57.940 And, you know, Washington is on such a tight, tight budget.
01:49:01.300 I, I can completely understand that.
01:49:04.560 Also, here is the beyond the chicken shortage, spooky story.
01:49:10.060 I'm going to read this one verbatim.
01:49:14.080 The chief scientist for the newly created U S space force has said that he thinks human
01:49:20.840 augmentation will be here sooner rather than later.
01:49:25.480 100% agree.
01:49:27.160 But listen to this.
01:49:28.480 Dr.
01:49:29.080 Joel Moser speaking at event at the air force research laboratory said that it is imperative
01:49:34.560 that the U S outdo its adversaries by leading in human augmentation in military technology
01:49:42.720 in the last century, quoting Western civilization transformed from an industrial based society
01:49:49.600 to an information based society.
01:49:51.520 But today we're on the brink of a new age, the age of human augmentation in our business
01:49:58.620 of national defense, it is imperative that we embrace this new age, lest we fall behind
01:50:03.820 our strategic competitors.
01:50:06.420 Now he has been with the air force for most of his career.
01:50:09.800 He helped develop many of the space flight technologies.
01:50:13.600 He said there are unimaginable advances that will be made over the next five to 10 years,
01:50:20.220 citing the leaps and artificial intelligences.
01:50:22.480 Um, he says the, uh, fate of the space force, uh, could eventually develop an AI military
01:50:30.280 tactic and strategies that no human could, and eventually anonymous programs or machines
01:50:38.240 would understand, but strategies that no human could understand the AI eventually would create
01:50:46.160 programs that would design line of attacks far too complex for humans to understand.
01:50:51.260 This will extend into the battlefield where, listen to this, where commanders and decision makers
01:50:57.840 will have at their disposal, multiple autonomous agents, uh, each able to control the execution
01:51:05.800 of things like reconnaissance, fire control, or attack.
01:51:10.640 So in other words, he wants to augment humans so we could interface with AI.
01:51:21.260 AI and be able to understand the line of attack because otherwise AI will just take to the
01:51:29.060 battlefield and do things we can't understand in our name.
01:51:34.880 Wow.
01:51:36.020 Maybe now the people in Washington, if that happened, the white people in Washington would
01:51:41.260 understand how we feel now about them, that they do things that none of us understand because
01:51:48.380 they don't make sense, none of us understand and they don't care.
01:51:52.960 They just execute them all in our name.
01:51:57.220 This is really, really, really bad.
01:52:01.380 Um, you know, there have been several scientists that have said we need to sign a pact, a worldwide
01:52:07.200 pact that AI would not be used for military, that we would not get into, you know, militarized
01:52:14.560 people, augmented people, uh, you know, I don't think China is going to care about that.
01:52:19.720 I don't think Russia is going to care about that, but we should, I don't know.
01:52:23.320 There isn't a difference.
01:52:24.620 You know, the Hitler tried to make the Uber man, the Uber mensch and tried to make a superhero.
01:52:32.880 That's what Captain Marvel is all about or not.
01:52:36.060 Captain Marvel, uh, Captain America, Captain America is that story, you know, the red skull
01:52:42.260 created by the Nazi doctors and we created Captain America.
01:52:46.560 So they actually tried to do that with drugs and everything else back in the 1930s.
01:52:52.980 The CIA tried to do it with experimental drugs, uh, in their covert program, uh, in the 1960s.
01:53:01.000 That was an abomination.
01:53:02.600 We're now going to do it again.
01:53:06.820 And it looks like technology is caught up to our desire, strange desire, but also at the
01:53:16.200 same time, they're saying, because technology is going to pass us soon and we won't understand.
01:53:22.820 I love the fact that he said, you know, we really have to think carefully of the ethics
01:53:27.260 of this.
01:53:27.720 Um, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:53:31.440 I think maybe we, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe we should seeing that it will act in
01:53:35.680 our name and, uh, could just go to war for things that we don't understand.
01:53:40.700 Do you remember, uh, Pat, the doomsday device?
01:53:45.260 The doomsday device?
01:53:47.300 Yeah.
01:53:47.780 Do you remember that?
01:53:48.440 Uh, from science fiction or a real doomsday device?
01:53:52.580 The real doomsday device, it, everybody thinks it's science fiction, but it was actual scientists
01:53:59.820 who said, we now are in the computing age.
01:54:03.860 So let's set up parameters and let everybody on earth know these parameters are what will
01:54:10.640 set the doomsday device off.
01:54:12.980 And they wanted to put nuclear, um, bombs underneath the surface of the earth, put them as close
01:54:22.720 to the core as they could get, wire it to a computer.
01:54:25.320 And if any, it would just judge us.
01:54:27.900 And if any country would start doing, you know, something and causing war, uh, and it
01:54:33.720 would go into global war, it would stop us because we would all know the computer is
01:54:38.260 watching us and it's going to blow up the entire earth.
01:54:40.220 They were serious about that.
01:54:42.920 Wow.
01:54:43.460 Serious.
01:54:44.800 And, uh, looks like we're, I mean, science, science doesn't change.
01:54:49.320 More things change, the more they say exactly the same.
01:54:52.580 All right.
01:54:53.140 Our sponsor this half hour is timeshare termination.
01:54:55.600 If you own a timeshare, let me just take a moment of silence for you and your wallet.
01:55:01.480 Wow.
01:55:01.960 I'm sorry for that.
01:55:03.020 I mean, don't get me wrong.
01:55:04.300 I almost did one too.
01:55:05.640 I almost did.
01:55:06.300 We were like, we love to vacation here.
01:55:08.460 We do that all the time.
01:55:09.700 We've never been back.
01:55:11.840 And I'm sure if we went back, we'd be like, we'd love it every time.
01:55:15.140 We should just get a timeshare here.
01:55:16.900 But then when you get a timeshare, it's not the timeshare that you wanted.
01:55:21.200 It's not the, it's not the vacation or the time or anything else that is convenient.
01:55:25.840 So what do you, what do you have really, except bills every single year?
01:55:32.320 Timeshare termination team can help you out of that.
01:55:34.940 There are some good timeshares out there.
01:55:36.740 If you have a Disney, you can sell it.
01:55:38.440 If you have one of the usual timeshares, you can't sell that thing.
01:55:41.440 And so it just sits there and just rots and decays and pulls you down.
01:55:45.840 Get out of it legally, permanently with the legal team at timeshare termination team.
01:55:52.200 Now they're going to give you a 100% guarantee that you're going to get out.
01:55:56.640 They will get you out 100% guaranteed.
01:55:59.260 And you'll get 20% off when you terminate your timeshare if you tell them that I sent you.
01:56:05.740 So make sure you tell them right up front that I sent you so you can get the 20% discount on terminating your timeshare.
01:56:12.320 It's going to free up a lot of money, a lot of headaches, and a lot of worry, quite honestly.
01:56:17.520 Get rid of your timeshare now.
01:56:20.000 Timeshareterminationteam.com.
01:56:20.980 That's timeshareterminationteam.com.
01:56:25.600 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:56:29.260 So I'd like your opinion on Instagram of the gas mask chandelier that I'm making for my man cave.
01:56:43.860 I'm making a man cave at the house.
01:56:45.960 And so far, you've seen it.
01:56:50.780 Oh, there's a picture of me working on it.
01:56:53.260 Yeah.
01:56:54.140 You can see the video of me making it.
01:56:56.400 My daughter going, what the hell are you doing?
01:56:59.260 As I'm making this, it's going to be really cool.
01:57:01.300 It's just a whole bunch.
01:57:02.160 It's like 30 gas masks and the lights are going to light up inside the eyes.
01:57:07.420 That's fantastic.
01:57:08.940 It's going to be cool.
01:57:10.000 That is cool.
01:57:10.980 But it is the craziest thing, Pat.
01:57:13.760 And every woman, every woman who has seen it hates it.
01:57:21.820 It's like, that is spooky.
01:57:23.580 It's scary.
01:57:24.780 It shouldn't be.
01:57:25.620 You got to take that apart.
01:57:27.160 And every guy goes, I love that.
01:57:29.780 Yeah, it's cool.
01:57:30.800 I think that's very cool.
01:57:32.660 Yeah.
01:57:33.120 Check it out on my Instagram page and you can vote.
01:57:36.100 Is it crazy or cool?
01:57:38.000 Or both.
01:57:38.400 So I'm guessing Tanya wouldn't want that in, say, your dining room or a living space area?
01:57:45.100 No.
01:57:45.320 No.
01:57:45.540 I don't think I would put it in the dining room either.
01:57:49.880 No.
01:57:50.320 I mean, you'd put that in your dining room?
01:57:53.960 I think I would.
01:57:54.920 Yeah.
01:57:55.200 It's cool.
01:57:55.800 Yeah.
01:57:56.220 It'd be a conversation piece, I'll tell you that.
01:57:58.460 Yeah.
01:57:58.960 Yeah.
01:57:59.160 Like Jackie would be saying, oh, you're staying on the couch again tonight.
01:58:02.800 Yes.
01:58:03.360 That's the kind of conversations that would probably happen.
01:58:05.960 All right.
01:58:06.480 Have a safe weekend.
01:58:07.360 Thank you so much for listening.
